You shouldn't have fuel going to the cylinders.
1) The fuel pump shouldn't be able to overcome the needle and seat if the bowls are full, so pumping gas out the boosters shouldn't happen.
2) Gas shouldn't be sucked out of the boosters either, as all sparkplugs should be out so it isn't going to have any vacuum signal going to the carb with such a major vacuum leak in each cylinder.
