No start after... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok so I have a 86 gmc sierra c25 with a thm400 and a 350 engine. Just rebuilt the carb and changed the intake gaskets and valve cover gaskets. Everything was fine until I go to start it up. It acted like it barely wanted to turn over then both + and - leads from the battery get hot and start to smoke. Before I go start tearing into it thought I might ask some advice of where to start looking for the problem. Also the battery is brand new 2 weeks old and I tried jumping it to same thing smoke and hot wires.

Thanks
Rodney
