My first thread and I'm old, so cut me some slack, Skippy..,57 TBird fuel supply design did not account for the lower boiling point of ethanol gas! There fore those bubbles you see in the glass bowl is your gas boiling and NOT your fuel pump. Cures are several...run a return line back to fuel tank from top of fuel pump,.. add low pressure electric fuel pump before glass bowl (I did this with manual switch-works great- especially after layup) ,reroute fuel line , use "space craft" insulation.
Hope this helps
