another no start

hello all. 92 camaro tpi 305, t5. Engine only runs on starting fluid. Here is where I am. Getting ready to hand down car to my son. car has sat for 7 maybe 8 years. this is what I have done
1. new cap, rotor, plugs, wires, msd coil
2. new fuel pump, sock, filter, submersable hose in place of pulsator.
3. new fp reg and stainless braided fuel hoses.
4. cleaned fuel rail, all new o-rings, had injectors cleaned flowed and new baskets installed, all are 16 to 16.4 ohm.
5. Replaced all weather pack connectors due to heat age etc.
6. fuel pressure while cranking is 38 psi, set tps to 540mv dead nuts, all injector plugs fire noid light, has hot spark at plugs.
7. all new rubber hoses, vacuum lines, plenum, tb gaskets etc
8. fuel pump does not prime with koeo, but runs with cranking oil psi
9. No codes only 12 when i jump aldl.
10. timing has not been adjusted, and runs well on starting fluid.

What am I missing? thanks and sorry so long winded, wanted to be clear. Car ran great when I parked it.

I heard from some where that a fuel filter can be a problem, it was in my car which sat for almost 10 years.
