Question 223 Carburetor Fuel Line Routing
Since the stock routing of the fuel line from the carburetor to fuel pump has it running along side the valve cover, close to the manifold, and wrap close to the top radiator hose causes any potential with vapor lock or hot fuel issues?

I wouldn't think so. I had a 1960 F100 4x4 with the 223 I-6, don't recall any problems. Besides, it was this way from the factory for a few years, I believe.
