Vapor lock sucks! It's hot as hades here in SC. Didn't drive her very far just a couple short trips. Stopped at starbucks, got back in and no start. Had the girlfriend come get me and came back a couple hours later...started right up! Would an electric fuel pump help this or is the return line the best route?

Electric pump with an 80's ChryCo spec bypass filter will make it a thing of the past. I have talked about this mod to death so search the forum if you want more info or give me a PM. Works great for the hot weather and getting a work out at high altitude. Modern gas formulation is made for injection, so our carbbied beasts are more susceptible now days.:thumb-up:
