I for one have had a lot of problems with it over the years.  Most
recently in my 74 Suburban.  After comming off the highway, I would
have vapor lock problems with the engine stalling at every stop until
everything got cooled down again.  I mostly solved the problem with an
electric fuel pump back near the tank.  I've had it like that for years
now.
