Bill :
I would look first at your carbs, as I think they are a much more likely
suspect than low fuel pressure, from your description.
Then, as someone else suggested, get a vacuum/fuel pressure gauge and
check out the fuel pressure before doing anything like changing fuel
pumps. If low fuel pressure is your problem, check carefully for
restrictions. A crushed/plugged line or tank vent may well be why the
fuel pump was changed the first time. You can tee the vacuum gauge in
just before the pump to test.
