Sorry only got .01 cents worth.
Do you have a in line fuel filter installed. If so is it a free flow filter. Some inline fuel filters will not work on a free flow line.

Also have you tried to run with you gas cap off. If its not vented it will not let the fuel flow. Like when you put a straw in a glass of water and plug the the other end and lift it out the water stays in until you release the pluged end.

When you put the bowl back on and turn the gas back on you shouldn't get a fast flow out of the tank,if you do you don't have a good seal.Also sounds like you may be getting a vapor lock,have you tried to put a shield between the exhaust manifold and the fuel line. Like I said my .01 cents worth. As anyone knows that doesn't buy much anymore
