Gets hot and stalls out

It looks like I’ve got some sleuthing to do. Dana67Dart gave a whole list of stuff, but I think hitting the tank and seeing how efficient it is makes a ton of sense as a starting point. I’ll also check into a return system; that makes sense to me as well just because it seems like it will help with one of the possible causes (and possibly be a preventative measure too). I’ve got a lot to learn- thank you all for the expertise.
It's a shame we have to resort to a return system but also a good thing. There's some cost involved, but the benefits far outweigh that small cost and any trouble it takes to install it. I've preached the benefits of a good return system on here for years and it either falls on deaf ears, I get run over with a freight train, or it's totally ignored. I don't have a return system on either of my older vehicles. A 64 Valiant and a 75 Ford F250, but it's because of finances. Things are always real tight for us, so I have to do things in really small increments. One last thing. If you do plumb in a return system, I also recommend a fuel pressure regulator plumbed into the return line as then it doubles also as the restrictor for the return system. It doesn't matter "where" in the system the regulator is, it will regulate fuel pressure regardless. You'll need what's called a "bypass" pressure regulator and not a "dead head" regulator. Just more information for you.
