The guy, who happens to president of our local club, did the experiment of swapping carbs (but not fuel lines, etc.) and reported result in our latest newsletter: The problem was NOT carb related; vapor lock stayed with the car, not the carb. Must be some subtle difference in air flow patterns in the engine compartments. It's not engine pans; others have reported problems with or without them.
