Joe - the picture of the base of your carb installed doesn't look like it has any spacer between the carb and the manifold. Looks like just a gasket to me. Not sure how it normally is on your year, but on my car the spacer is a 1/2" piece of plastic with gaskets on either side. Without that spacer I'd think the carb would get pretty hot. I don't know that it would have anything to do with the fuel flooding issue though...
