Rebuilt the car on my BR. Now with the petcock off, (petcock does leak slightly) I am getting fuel puking out of the drain hole on the bottom of the bowl... WTF?

sounds like you have some crap in the seat of the drain screw,,, take it out and see if it will flush out them try again,, if not pull the bowl off and clean it.......

Sounds like your floats are either not right in the carb, or they are stuck. Thats why its coming out of the overflow tube. Check it out!!!!!!!!!
