1971-73 Mustang Mach 1 doesn't get fuel to the carburetor, please help!

My 72 with a 351c runs great for 10 minutes then no fuel gets to the carb. I have a electric pump on it now. When it dies I remove the fuel line from the carb turn ignition on and prime it again. Then ot runs another 1 minutes.....any ideas?

Most electrics are better at pushing fuel from the tank than pulling it from the engine compartment.
