Is there a reason you think it's boiling in the carb?
Less dense fuel rarely would cause poor mileage. But, on the off-chance that the fuel is boiling in the carb, Holley makes a shield that goes between the carb and intake manifold that would reduce the heat that is getting to the fuel bowls.
What are you using for a fuel pump system?
(Have you considered possible effects from your custom cup holder???
