Re: Flooding at Cold Start, Edelbrock 1407 on a 383

If the choke was wide open (and normally it works fine), I'd say it is very plausible that your key was on all night.

On all of my old vehicles that do not already have an oil pressure light, I wire one up. So if I leave the key on without the vehicle running, I have a big red light in my face that comes with the added bonus of verifying oil pressure. Might be something to consider.
