Default HP500 carbs on a hot/454vortec condensate on the intake?

Stupid queston, but one mtr has a LOT of condensate on the Dart intake and the other doesn't.Guess this means I'm WAY RICH? Maybe to high float level.Just ran it yesterday for the first time and haven't read the plugs yet. I saw other posts about jetting being diff between sides on secondaries and sometimes primaries.

You said you had hot motors and you've probably already covered this but, youre sure its not a sign of reversion?

I've seen my engine form condensate on the intake runners. My engine runs very cold, only building temps on the warmest of water. It's my assumption that the evaporation of fuel is causing the high humidity to condense on a already cold engine. What is the engine temp?
