fuel delivery

Hi, it's that time of the year. My 67 olds 98 (425) is prone to vapor lock. I've tried external fuel pumps , their life span is about 6 mos. Has anybody switched to an in-tank fuel pump without switching the tank ?
Thanks Ken

Your vapor lock probably has more to do with fuel line routing than fuel pumping. Ost some pictures of your line routing from the pump to the carb/s

Ditto! It ain't the fuel pump.

I think the cool cans are still used at the track. If it is what I think it is.
