That does seem like a lot of priming fuel.

Actually, it shouldn't even need it since you've had it running recently, and you're running gas, so no worries about kerosene in the carb, but those carbs will want one or two half-cranks of choke, then no choke.

You have the original governor, if I remember your video correctly; if so the throttle lever controls the carb directly except at rated RPMs, so the throttle about half too is a good place to try.

Do you have the priming tubes closed? Even without the rings seated yet (I think you have new sleeves and rings, and the head reworked), I doubt this is your problem, but does it have suction [if you have good compression, barring a bad manifold gasket etc, you probably have suction]?

Else, maybe the carb is plugged, but these don't have really fancy orifices.
