I had similar vapor lock and fuel bowl flooding after I got gas in Austin coming back from our cruise to the OASIS on Lake Travis. I have no room to put a spacer but Keith and Rob recommended putting some 107 or 110 in it so I put 5 gallons of 107 in last Saturday. Took it to Cars and Coffee and then the Cobra lunch and it ran great and it was 86 that afternoon and no problems. I plan to mix about 4 or 5 gallons of 107 with each fill up of 93 for a while. Heck it was only $ 6.23 gallon so not to far from 93.....

High Performance World (HPW) at 3133 National Circle - Garland, Texas www.hpwtx.com 972-271-3900. It's a speed shop run by Husband and wife from Austrailia. They opened a couple years ago and have all kinds of performance parts in stock plus fuel. You can buy 55 gallon drums or take you container in and buy it by the gallon. I was going to get some 110 and after talking to him regarding my 10.7 compression he suggested 107 would be better as it burns faster than the 110. 110 is better for higher compression.
