Thanks for the feed back on this it helped, I hope.

This answer wasn't the correct answer for me. When I took the float bowl off there already were baffle extenders on the metering body. I called the carburetor manufacturer, per the suggestion of the engine manufacturer Proformance Unlimited, and he told me to install rear jet extenders on the rear bowl jets and that will solve my problem. He explained it technically but to make it short, on hard stops the gas in the rear bowl flows forward creating a suction and allowing fuel to go into the carburetor through the jets thus flooding the engine. I'm going to install the jet extenders and if that solves the problem I'll post it, the technician was positive that would solve my problem.
