Its from the weep holes between the header flange and the water injection. A few drips is normal, pouring out is not. Let the motor run 5-10 sec after you turn the water valve off.
Drivers seat mounted valve?

Just curious... what was the oil pressure like?

I see two problems that may or may not be related... one... as soon as you get into the secondaries, it shuts down... possible fuel issue or ignition issue. Then it cranks slowly and won't start until it sits... which seems electrical in nature. I'd check your fuel pressure... check fuel lines, vents, etc... just for nothing more than it has sat and you don't know the condition of the system until you check it out. Second... I'd take a peek at your ignition timing and see where it is at intial... which may be part of the slow cranking if it is way too high. Also... another place to look is your coil and/or ignition module/points/ballast resistor if your distributor has any of these... an electrical ignition part can really cause a great deal of headache when they work fine under a light load... and then start causing problems under heavy load/demand. I'd be willing to bet that you're gonna find that one of these will be your issue... BUT...

the reason I asked about oil pressure is that there is the waaaaaaay off chance that you may have a mechanical issue... seen it several times, most of the time they were Olds 455's... but you'd see for sure signs of a mechanical issue... low oil pressure... knocking... etc... Only mention it because... if nothing else is the problem, then you're left with one.

That sounds like too much trouble.  Give it to me and I'll get it sorted out for you and return it when I'm done with it next season.

Now if you really want to spend the time yourself I'd suggest double checking fuel pressures & flow (change fuel filters), Inspect fuel hoses for cracking or sucking air, debris in the fuel tanks, check the needle and seats and float levels also.
