That's the correct engine for that car, is it a V8 replacement or just a new(er) engine?  either way I think it's something you've done connecting it up.

The old favourite, drop a pipe from the lift pump into a jerry can.

Did you replace the tank or get rid of the fuel pump in the tank?  what about the in-line petrol filter?

Check the sender unit, the pipes on the sender unit which come out the tankl have a habit of getting minute holes in them.
