Default I need help, flooding!

Ok so my crx has been off the road for a while. I have a DOHC ZC built and boosted. Im now heading around the corner to finish it up with my OBD1 conv. Well my car started to sound like a race boat and sounded like its been misfiring...i just got the money for the dizzy not long ago. I havent been able to run the car since I built it do to funds. Within time it seems like when I start up the motor for a minute or 2 to keep everything lubed up it sounds worse and worse. Well tonight my dad came over to help me figure it out....the head is expletive flooded!!!!! My question is, when we reved it up, gas was coming out of the turbo mani gasket. Maybe flooded on the bottom of the head past the valves? I need help, im so mad I could cry but its my own fault. I have 450s on a stock 89 teg ecu I know I know stupid me....the ecu I have for the obd1 is base map tuned for the 450s. Can anyone tell me if I may have screwed anything up? We are going to take the head apart and see if we can drain all that excess fuel.

maybe one of your injectors is stuck open?

or maybe because of the misfire and the gigantic injectors, and the fact that the ECU isnt calibrated for those injectors its just dumping alot more fuel than it should at idle.

get the misfire fixed, and have the ECU tuned for the injectors

Well do you think its misfiring because it cant burn all that fuel? We are going to try and drain it out as much as we can. The obd ecu I have is tuned for the 450s.

How can you tell if the injectors are sticking? Is there a test or something you can run to see?
