Following each flight, I use a shut down procedure that includes closing the fuel valve until the fuel pressure drops low enough for our warning girl to offer a gentle reminder, then shut down. This only takes about 20 seconds. The idea is to reduce the fuel level in the 2 carbs so that the fuel expansion created by the engine compartment heat will not cause carb bowl overflow. I did consider the fact that the fuel pump is running dry, but I can't imagine that this is an issue. The next start is preceded by running the electric pump until fuel pressure is satisfactory before doing a start. Everything seems to be going fine with this practice, so far, but I thought this might be worth a question to the forum.
