You'll also need to restrict fuel pressure to 5 or 5.5 psi to prevent flooding with a pressure regulator or the Edelbrock Performer RPM fuel pump (1721).
These are key tips man, definitely getting the gasket. So, I replaced the fuel pump with an oem spec AcDelco, I haven't had a flooding issue with it, at least during the year that I've been using it.
