It wasn't wet but I havent ran the engine in a while. It was darker and not whitish like the rest though.

Well im going to get rid of this piece of shit edelbrock that almost killed me last year. So im guessing the black smoke is due to my carb then.....I dont know what else it could be.
Holley FTW!
Thats the plan lol. Does that sound right though? I mean it has to be the carb. I dont know what else it could be. The black exhaust is coming from both sides. If that's the case, ill be ordering a holley tomorrow. Any one specific? I havent looked at their carbs in a while.
Also makes me wonder how it was tuned like this?
Thank god that carb is goin away!
As for it being in afr is beyond me considering the thing looks like a big rig when under acceleration or even idle still puffs black smoke.
Hard to tell the color of the plugs because the flash washes them out but like the other guys pointed out, something looks off with that #3 plug top row. IE weak spark, not firing something. Too much total timing also. Have you out a timing light on it? I'd guess that thing has close to 40 degrees all in
They are white. And no I havent had a light on it since after they tuned it.
Went back and looked at your plugs some more. They actually look to me like you are running rich at idle but you don't have much color on the porcelain so Id say you could be running lean WOT. (Too much timing and/or jetting). The ground strap shows a lot of timing for sure.
So I guess a new carb and a little bit of adjusting and hopefully I'll be good?
Here is the dyno sheet with my AFR on it.

32-34 all in is what a lot of people say for sbc u have a adjustable light or fixed?
It's adjustable.
Cool
Re-jet the Eddy
Still curious about that one plug not looking like the others.
Not to mention could have really hurt the motor.
