Question 74' 450sl Vapor Lock

Due to CA's oxygenated fuels, my 450sl is suffering from vapor lock after sitting for 10-20 minutes at running temps. It's very rough idling for about 3 minutes until the fuel line is filled with cooler fuel.
My question is the use of an octane booster and will it correct the problem? Thanks in advance.
