I've changed the alternator and battery. Checked every fuse I could find, but there is a power drain somewhere. I took the battery out of the car overnight and tested it in the morning and the it was fine. If I leave it in the car overnight in the morning it is dead. Anyone have an idea.

Ok, to narrow down the circuit the drain is on you can do this.

Using a test light - Disconnect the positive terminal connect the test light between the Positive Cable you just took off and the Positive Post. The test light will light up since you have a draw. Goto your fuse block and pull the fuses 1 at a time checking the light each time. Once the light goes out that will be the circuit the draw is on.
