(Very nice workmanship.)
Is there any problem with vapor lock on a hot day?
I do not know how high the boiling point is raised with 30 to 40 lbs of fuel pressure, but it seems like there would be a problem restarting on a hot day, hot engine.

Hi Pete,
The lines under the intake are vacuum only, no fuel runs through them. EFI uses 42 psi and had a return line system so that the fuel is never on the engine long enough to get too hot.
HTH,
Mike
