God of Magnificant Ideas!
Why is it everytime some-one fits a holley they expect it to work like a dream come true......
Holleys are shyte carbys in standard form when used in "offroad" conditions..... either get it modified to suit off road use or left hand right shoulder the thing !....Rochesters are far better for offroad use in standard form too by the way !
Another thing that puzzles the hell out of me is "why people fit Holleys???", do you seriously think GMH / Ford/ etc would spend thousands of dollars and time developing a carby that you you simply toss aside to fit a holley.....logical its certainly not !
As for the overheating and dead engine issues, you have other issues with the setup that are causing these problems.....
We need more info to assist with solving the problems.
IE:
when it "dies" do you have
spark?, fuel?, power? ......
when it over heats
is there a bigger radiator fitted?, is the botom hose sucked in?, are you running additional thermo fans?, are you running an engine fan?, is it dumping water?,

I think your temp gauge or sender is not working.
I have a similar problem the gauge goes to halfway and the sender is not even connected.
If it is flooding from the carby it would be hard to start and blow heaps of black smoke when it does start.
All the holley will need to make it work offroad is a spring-loaded needle & seat and vent extension I have these fitted to a 750 and you can drive at any angle.
I would at the electrical side.
