have you ever cleaned or replaced the metal mesh sock/strainer/filter that is on the fuel outlet tube inside the fuel tank? did you remove and flush the tank prior to installing your new engine? have you replaced EVERY inch of fuel line?

"black crud"...deteriorated fuel line? btw, if you are using the the CB/Carter version pump, when you received it there may have been a round metal canister attached. it is a before the pump filter. when i installed the CB pump on my carbed car i took the metal filter off and replaced it with a stock FI filter upstream of the pump.

on p 50 of the cb weber manual. note item #3. a gause filter that is in the fuel inlet housing that is located on what would be the outside of the carbs when installed (1 per each carb). with what appears to be your fuel delivery issues, i would ensure they are clear as well.
