my engine is acting really funny it seems like a horrible backfire that cuts my RPMs in half and olts my car to a stop some times. i checked my oil and the meetering stick measured a 1/2 inch more than compleatly full but before it didnt what happened?

It is very difficult to figure out what you are trying to say. It helps us a lot if you can write in complete sentences that are grammatically correct with proper spelling. As near as I can tell from what you wrote, you are having a problem of backfiring? What other symptoms is the engine exhibiting?

Well i just checked my spark plugs and they were heavely blackened, so i cleaned them off and put them back in. The car seems to be running ok now but is running really ritch. I have 700 miles on this engine, could it be a bad break in process?

The engine will have weak compression for the first thousand or so (sometimes longer) miles after it is rebuilt. Put in a new set of plugs and then give it some time. Drive following proper breakin procedures.
