Edelbrock Fuel Pump and Carburetor

How about an update?
Ok - I finally got the combination running. I determined that it was not bad, gas, or the fuel pump. I had to adjust the choke plate on the carburetor to pull the fuel up. However now the problem I encountered yesterday is that she started up, and ran fine, but then after 30 minutes of driving it sounded like the cam dropped of and when it was running sounded like a four cylinder, she would not accelerate, and finally she stalled and would not crank back up. I had not had a chance to get back out there and look at it, but I will try to today. I will begin to diagnose the problem today, and figure out how to permanently adjust the carburetor.
