Hey CudaJon!

Did you end up getting this resolved? My 73 Cuda 340 has the exact same problem (though mine does not have the original gas tank, does have the charcoal canister, and has an Edelbrock AVS2 carb).

Go figure

Not saying vapor lock doesn`t happen but I`ve seen many times what someone thinks is vapor lock turns out to be a different issue.
