Is it fine on tickover/startup?

If not, it could just be your idle/pedal adjustment.

Does it only happen after a long run??

Could you clarify the symptoms a little more?

If this only happens after the cars been running for a while, then the first thing I'd suggest is changing the oil. After a long run, the oil gets hot and it thins out. If you've got the wrong kind of oil in there, it'll thin out too much and you'll loose all oil pressure. This can cause ths problem (it was actually quite a common problem on old sports cars).
