Keith,
I would start by checking some basic stuff to assess the health of the engine. do a compression check of all the cyls. They are probably ok with that kind of milage. I guess if the eng was using oil you would have said so.
Looks like the engine is running rich to me. Do you let the car idle a lot?, What carb are you running? Is the float level correct? A high float level will make it richer. Check the power vavle if it is a Holley. I'll stop babbling now

Dah, I just looked at your gallery. Oh yeah, I remember that intake. above info still valid. Just add an "S" after the above ref's to the carb
