hard starting runs for awhile dies and wont start

alright well for awhile now my camaro has had a problem of hardstarting it has to crank for awhile to finally start once it starts it runs fine for awhile if your dirving youll lose power and will have to keep your foot on the pedal to stay running and once it dies which is inevitable. It wont start back up for awhile.

dont know if it matters but its a l98 converted to a 5 speed with a chip and vats delete.



It has new plugs wires cap and rotor bug. and bosch III injectors and seals.

What is your timing set at? How about the TPS? How old is the O2 sensor and CTS?

Well I bought a fuel pressure tester and I'm not getting any fuel. The pump isnt priming. I switched one of the fan relays with the fuel pump relay and still nothing is there anything else to check before replacing the pump.
