Chad we were at a pull Sunday , we pull a SH SM and a plain M, It was very hot close to 80.
We have taken out the sedament bowls and also put in the glass fuel filters. They usually stay full of fuel.
That day they all acted like they were starving for fuel.the filters were only half full and looked like not a lot of fuel were going thru. The gas cap vents seem ok.
Have you ever had this problem? Could the gas in the bowl be getting hot and boiling and razing the needle valve shut?

Could be a few things to factor,, Humidity in the air, can change the air quality. A piece of dirt on the needle seat partially blocking it above the needle itself, If all of your tracors did this, then it is something common amongst all of them. (weather) Check your fuel flow coming out of the line, and through the neddle seat. should run pretty freely. You can either remove the carb bowl to see that, or open up the drain plug if it has one. If the carb was hot, it may have warped the floats in them, and hang up on the sides, Did they flood over out the breather pipe? Check the plugs for color, black, too much fuel, brownish,, is OK, and whitish color is lean, that will tell the tale if it a fuel delivery problem. Before you check the plugs, work the engine some how, ride the brakes, or something, shut it down, and look at the plugs. ChadS
