Well, yesterday after just 20 miles and radiator running cool, while I did not experience vapor lock, the fuel in the filter bowl inlet to the carburetor was intensly bubbling (this was on a 1954 non-Packard). I had a generator light come and when I lifted the hood was quite surprised. I have since rerouted the fuel line well away from the exhaust manifold.
