I had a similar problem but because I already had a side-exhaust felt it was
due more to heat coming up from the exhaust header and causing vapor-lock in
the carbs. Dave Russell suggested I contact Manta Ray (see:
http://www.mmrusa.com/HSreflectshield.htm) and buy one of the 14" x 20"
heatshields to wrap
around the downpipes. I did and it has made a big difference.
The heatshield sells for $45--I have an extra new one that I will be happy to
sell for $30 plus postage. I attached it around my downpipes via two long SS
hose clamps. It also has cut down on the temperature of the toebox.
