86 IROC-Z Been Stored for 8 Years! NEEDS FUEL PUMP, What Else?

I traded my 78 Terry Bass boat for this 86 IROCZ NC CAR, 130,000 2 owner car. Needs fuel pump(previous hatch cut already)...
What else should I check do besides draining old gas if any, flush fuel lines etc.

How did it go? I've brought 2 third gen cars back to life after sitting for years. I replaced the tanks, sending units, fuel pumps and front brake lines on both.
