It can be very easy to flood an engine, literally matter of seconds while priming.
As soon as you see the fuel enter the carb, stop and try and start the car.

Its always a good practice to disassemble the carb, if the car has been sitting for too long, but I don't think its that since the fuel is entering the carb.
 
Theres clearly something wrong besides just tuning. I have ran many sfgp's and even with the mixture screws way off they still ran and did not flood. Pull the carburetor off and inspect.
I did, nothing was weird and nothing was clogged, will post a vid soon
Hers a video at 2 turns out
I believe it a fuel pressure problem since it will run when theirs enough fuel

Where is the vid?
They should run even with pressure line disconnected. I would check for air leaks now.
When you prime the car, finger over stinger and a few pulls, can you see the fuel entering the carb?
 
Yea check the o ring seal between carb and engine or just replace it since its 20 years old at this point
