Tonight, I fabricated a large "washer" to put over the top of the float 
tops.  Essentially, I took some aluminum plate and drilled it out with a 
2 3/4 inch hole saw. Then I took a 2 inch hole saw and used the same 
pilot hole to drill out the center (pilot hole kept it symmetrical. This 
combination of hole saw sizes seems to give me the washer width needed. 
Using the existing float top as a guide, I marked the orientation of the 
three screw holes on the *washer" and drilled them out.  Then I put the 
float tops on, oriented them front to rear, and placed the "washers" 
over the top lining it up with the existing screw holes in the float 
bowl and tightened it down.  Seems to seat fine and I have no leaks so far.

The only thing is that the screws inevitably end up under the fuel inlet 
and outlet to the second carb.  I am going to get a float top with a 
single fuel inlet like I have for the rear carb, put it on front, and 
just run separate lines to each carb. That way I only have one fuel 
inlet on the front bowl that will be a little bit harder to tighten.

Hoping this solves the flooding problem now that the float bowls are 
front to rear.  Hope this helps others if it works! will know next test 
and tune day (or drive around the hood).
