JSchwinn:
Valve covers were spotless but I'll pull them again just to verify.  When I did the intake I cleared all the sludge.  I'll pull the pan and see how that looks. I also ran sea foam through the engine at idel for 45 mins yesterday then drained the oil, it was dirty but nothing major came out.   

I haven't checked the timing and to be honest this is the 1st time I've messed with a carb so I could be tuning it wrong.  I just messed with the 2 screws till it sounded right.....

Big Chuck:
Check your oil dipstick and see if the oil smells like gas. Could be getting washed out because the carb is running to rich.

JSchwinn:
well at idle there is no issue, and above idle the set screws don't affect the flow so I don't think that is the issue.  the oil definitely didn't smell like gas when I drained it yesterday.  I was dirty after 45 min in the engine but nothing abnormal, there was no evidence of metal
