My car runs really well. Cold starts great. Has phenolic spacers etc but after I shut it off I have to have the throttles open at least half way and crank for 5-10 seconds to start. If I don't open the throttles then it will sound like timing is to advanced but clearly is not and it will stumble until it clears out.It has to be some excessive fuel getting down the throats somehow? What to check? Floats sticking?

After a prolonged drive open the engine lid when you're parked. It might take a few pumps and start tries. When the cooler fuel gets to the carbs things calm down. Do not grind away with starter. Let the pump and carbs do the work. Or, put an FI cam inside and return to a fuel injection system outside. A or B.This is a case where installing a pressure return line is not going to help. (I put phenolic spacers between the carbs and intakes too)
