There is no carb on her right now as I bent one of the little brass tubes lifting it-so it took it off. The throttles are frozen anyways. But I could hear it suck air and then the sound would go away and come back.

Either way when she goes on the stand I am going to check all of the bearings, probably replace the rear main seal and have the heads redone. If she requires a rering then I would do it the as well. This all assumes the bearings are good. Thanks for the ideas and help.

K-that is what the band held one is for, always wondered. When number 1 blew handoff it covered the gauge in oil. I had previously shot oil into each cylinder to lube the walls and poured oil over the rockers and push rods. So it is possible the pump is pumping oil and the seals swelled enough to seal just s bit. Either way I think it shop time for the heads. But this is why I did the test, so i know what I have.
