I don't run SU's but since you have installed a new fuel pump you might pull 
the fuel line at the carb, insert it into a can or jar and turn on the 
ignition to ssee if it is in fact pumping.  I would then check out the float 
level/bowl and needle (is it stuck since it sat for a while?) for correct 
setting or sediment in the bowl.  These  things being squared away will 
assure you that fuel is getting to carburettor.  Beyond that, I am sure you 
will get listers ideas on setting the carb, but that will give you a starting 
point.
