I got the motor running awsome using a timing lite so I drove it up and down our road and I heard a poping noise so I opened the hood and it was coming out the carb the longer it ran the worse it got, now it cant start any ideas.

That means your timing is still wrong. You may have to manually rotate your engine (Battery Disconnected!!!) until your #1 cylinder is at the top of a compression stroke. Have the plug out and insert a compression gauge. If you don't have one, put a piece of duct tape over the plug port and watch for the tape to be pushed off. Then make sure the rotor of your distributor is pionted at the #1 plug wire. That will get you in the ball park to adjust your timing with a light.
Good Luck!
