[40ford]

I installed a new carburetor from Dennis Carpenter on my truck.(1952 F-1 flathead V8 stock).The truck runs very smooth with no issues except when I stop engine and it sits for a short time I notice the smell of gas and truck is flooded and hard to crank.I have carb back off and what should I check?I checked float level and looks like about 1 and 10/32 inches.
