YellowShoe - Will is west of Toronto, I'm East and there are a few others on the forum that are scattered about the fringes of the city. Are you closer to one side or the other? You can use Private Messaging to let either Will and/or I know where you are and maybe one or both of us can come out to give you a hand with the diagnosis.

BTW, I'm wondering if a phenolic spacer under the carb and getting the fuel line up off the intake (if it's resting on it or the valve cover) might prevent the fuel from boiling ... plus checking the total advance on the distributor.

As for fuel pumps, If you need to change it and want to stay with a mechanical pump, they're readily available, the part number on mine is 41449, the Holley number is 12-854, and NAPA's pump for the 351C is 60007.
