Yep. Had the same problem. Your engine is getting hot because your timing is off and basically boiling your gas (vapor locking) your engine. Check the counter weights in your distributor to make sure they are installed correctly and reset your timing. My counter weights were installed backwards in the distributor before I got the track, and I heard from others that it could be the problem. That should take most of the problem away. Also helps to shut the gas flow off a minute before you shut down the engine to starve the carb a little.Steve
