The problems with heat seem to occur passing through ~17,000 when there is a simultaneous drop in fuel flow to about 28 gph. I even tried going to full boost with the mixture full rich - this wouldn't even get the fuel flow to increase back to normal 30 gph. Does your fuel flow ever deviate from 30 gph (VM1000)? My takeoff fuel flow is normal around 44 gph (fuel pump off). What could be causing the fuel flow to decrease in the 17,000 area?
