Sorry, been down with the flu. Okay a few answers:
The fuel pump is an Edelbrock 1792, "160 GPH, enough to feed a 1,000+ hp engine".
Regulator is set to 7 psi, per Holley specs.
The accelerator pump on the carb was changed from the 30cc to the 50cc one. It's the 20-11 kit.
The car is currently put away for the winter, but I can probably still do a compression test at some point.

I need to confirm that the secondaries are opening correctly. That could be a factor. I suppose I could mount my go pro under the hood with my magnet and view the regulator gauge when I floor it to make sure I'm not running out of gas, but I doubt that's it.

With all this good information, I'm starting to consider swapping the intake, making sure the secondaries are working right and taking it for a spin before pulling the engine for the oil leak. Might save me a whole lot of money compared to tearing everything apart and replacing a bunch of stuff that's already working "fine".
