OK I JUST FIRED MY ENGINE FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY SOUNDED VERY NICE BY THE WAY 😀 IT RAN FOR A MINUTE BUT IT IS NOT PUMPING FUEL TO THE CARB AND YES I HAVE GAS DUH!!!!
I PUT A NEW FUEL PUMP ON THE ENGINE TWO DAYS AGO AND RAN ALL NEW LINES FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE (DID V6 SWAP) I RAN RUBEER HOSE INTO METAL HOSE ACROSS THE CROSSMEMBER INTO ANOTHER RUBBER LINE INTO THE PUMP AND RUBBER HOSE OUT OF THE PUMP THROUGH A FILTER (BY HEATER HOSE IN INTAKE ) TO THE CARB (EDELBROOK 600CFM) CAN ANY ONE GIVE ANY ADVICE
 
Stuck needle and seat?

Try tapping on the carb with a pliers or something.

Same thing happened to me when I dropped a motor that had been sitting for three years into my wagon. Had fuel at the pump, but wouldn't get fuel to the carb... couple taps and away she went.

With all that rubber hose, there may be a kink somewhere preventing fuel from making it to the carb too...
 
Please turn your caps lock off when posting. It is seen as shouting by those reading it and is quite disconcerting, to say the least.
