If the hole at the top surface of the filter can is much more than what you could make with a needle it may be too large and is bleeding off the pump pressure when the return line is open. I just looked in a spare filter I have and I doubt the hole is 1/64 inch.

My Dec. 1966 Baltimore built '67 has original HD cooling and the vapor return is off the filter. No vapor lock issues or hot run issues at all. Works great.
