If that's the case, there must be a "Hot" leg that's carrying 81 amps.

The neutral is just the return for a circuit, it's the center tap of the transformer, and for there to be 81 amps on the neutral, there must be a load SOMEWHERE ELSE. It could be that the wire is acting as a neutral for multiple circuits, you'd have to figure out what's going on.

What size breaker for a 3 phase 460 volt 50 hp motor?

Breakers are sized by the conductors that are connected to them. Conductors are sized by the amperage that the load draws. The electrical code states that a 50 HP 460 volt three phase motor draws 65 amps. The ideal amperage would be taken from the motors nameplate as different motors of the same horsepower will have different amperage's depending on what they are designed to do. The feeders for this motor have to be sized at 125% of the motors full load amperage. 65 x 125% = 81 amps. A #4 copper conductor with and insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 85 amps. The breaker for this motor is 150 amp or 175 amp fusing or 110 amp time delay fusing.

Why would the tail lights and dash lights not work and keeps blowing fuses on 81 Toyota Supra?

You have to find a short in the circuit that is causing the fuse to blow. Examine the tail light harness and also the license plate light. The license plate light can be where the short is as it is easily damaged in the bumper area. Use a "short checker". This kit can be found at a good automotive parts store and instructions are included. Basically you substitute a heavy amp circuit breaker for the fuse. As the circuit breaker trips on and off, you follow the wire with a "Galvanometer", (a small hand held amp gauge); the needle moves back and forth as the current in the wire moves it. When you go past the area of the short, the needle stops moving as there is no more current passing through the wire as it went to ground before that.
