Look down the barrels of the carb. If was really using that much fuel, you would see it going through the venturis, especially the secondaries. Rev it up a few times while watching, then rev it to about 2400 RPM, which I think with the C6 is about 50 MPH depending on the rear gear. If you see a white cascade of fuel, that is the problem, if running correctly, you should see very little fuel being sucked in, a fine mist maybe, but that would be it. Also pull the plugs that are easy to get to, if its really burning a lot of fuel, there would either be heavy carbon deposits, or they will be spotless. I used to rebuild those motors, and I can't imagine one using that much fuel that didn't have a blower on it and a pair of quads, or ram air.
