I used to have the same problem with my SPF. I wasn't starving for fuel, the heat under the hood was boiling the fuel in my carb when I shutoff and flooded the engine through the vents. If I held the throttle open and cranked, it would eventually start with a big cloud of black smoke. Now, at least 25 seconds before I shutoff the engine, I turn off my electric fuel pump and drain the carb by letting it idle. I also installed an Edelbrock carb insulating gasket. With my 557, I don't have enough hood clearance to use a wood spacer. No more problem. Worth a try.
