I had the same issue: phenolic spacer helped a bit; when I added fuel injection it fixed it; I’m sure the return line helped. You could add a return line and spacer, find some place to add 5 gallons (or more) of race fuel to a tank.

Can also buy online and have it shipped to your house in 5 gallon steel pails.
Sunoco 260GTX unleaded non-oxy has a Reid Vapor Pressure rating
of 4.7 and only a 10% evaporation rate at 182F.
As others have stated, a fuel return line can help in some cases. Where
it's less helpful is when cars have a low hanging metal fuel tank with no
non-metal barrier between it and asphalt. The radiant heat coming
off the road on a hot day can heat fuel in the tank to +100F with enough
road time.
