A little late, but I would also check to make sure your carb is sealed to the intake manifold properly. If you overtightened the carb, when it gets hot, it will open a small gap underneath it. When the engine cools just a bit, that gap is no longer there. Also, when your engine died, did you physically check to see if there was fuel starvation (remove air cleaner and pump throttle by hand while looking inside the bowls)? I'll buy the idea of vapor lock, but not at such regular intervals. Do you have a carb spacer between the carb and the intake manifold? Do you have gaskets on all surfaces??? What about the fuel filter, was it full of debris when you pulled it off?


All further questions that needed to be asked and answered........
