I can’t speak for Clipper but 1941 still had the dash push button for the starter so the carburetor you have is for a later model and may not be calibrated properly for your engine. Needles and jet sizes varied from year to year and model to model..
41 Clippers did have the accelerator start but the conventional bodies waited until 42.
In addition to possible carb jet size differences am also wondering if modern gas volatility could be the issue. Could be it is expanding or "boiling" when engine is hot and being expelled down the carb throat to flood the engine. In addition to needing cranking time to clear the flood, depending on whether the carb emptied completely it could also need time to refill the bowl.
