I'm lookin for some help. This past winter I replaced my tired old 318 with a built up 360. I have Hooker headers, an Edelbrock performer intake with a Carter competition series 750 cfm carb. It works great. Once the weather started getting warmer and when the motor is warmed up, I have noticed that it seems to starve for gas when accelerating after letting it sit idling for awhile or if I shut it off for a short period of time then get in and go again it will die out several times until I get going down the road so that the air must be cooling it down. I even tried a nonmetallic 1/2" spacer between the intake & carb. I also replaced the fuel line with thick rubber hose and re-routed it further away from the headers and to the outside of the frame rail away from the exhaust pipes. It just seems that it is vapor locking. Any ideas or anyone else experieced this trouble
Help!!!
