You're going to get a lot of residual vapors trapped in the sidepipes. I can still smell racing fuel in my garage a good 3-4 days after a drive. It's part of Cobra ownership, in my book (residual gas fumes). But next time you drive check the carb after shutdown to determine if you can hear any residual fuel trickling into the venturi. You may require a float adjustment in the bowls to lower the fuel level, accordingly.
