I for one have had a lot of problems with it over the years. Most
recently in my 74 Suburban. After comming off the highway, I would
have vapor lock problems with the engine stalling at every stop until
everything got cooled down again. I mostly solved the problem with an
electric fuel pump back near the tank. I've had it like that for years
now.

We spent a lot of time discussing how the fuel that is firewall forward gets hot and boils, therefore, the fuel had to be routed someplace where it could cool.
But what happens in carbuerated systems? There is a bowl there collecting and holding a 1/2 cup of fuel along with the delivery lines and the pumps only deliver a few pounds of pressure vs the 10's of pound in an injected systems. How do the carbs get away with it?
