are you sure the new fuel pump is working properly? whats the psi into the vp44? could any contaminants have gotten into the line?

Going yet?

Pull the banjo at the VP from the filter, and bump it a few times - should get solid fuel even before starting during the short lift pump cycle- and it should run all the air from the lines.- pull the plug exiting the filter also if you want until all air is out of it, and have most of the injector lines cracked at the head - min - the 4 or 5 easy ones. Tighten them as fuel shows up while cranking.
