Default What size flame arrestor?

Having issues with my carbs loading up and flooding at idle. Floats are set correct and even tried setting them while boat was in the water, but still the same problem.

Trying to decide if my arrestors are too small, too much carb or both. Engines are 532 Gen V Bowties. 9:1, .615 lift, 600 HP. Has 1050 Dominators with 10 x 3 arrestors.

Tracy Riggs feels it's too much carb. He's had great results in the past with Engines similar to mine, with over kill carbs, by replacing them with HP 950s converted with 50 cc acc pumps and .037 squirters. New carbs and parts are on the bench and ready to build. Just need to determine what size arrestors I need.

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.
