Good ideas

Thanks. Those seem to be some good ideas. I didn't closely check the throttle plate for leakage but had used the throttle spray technique on the hoses, and additionally made a tester to lightly pressurize the manifold and did a control leak down test as well and found a boatload of hose cracks. I've now got it up to 18 lbs vacuum at idle now (I did have 14). I think I'll just swap out that filter and look for the tank screen and watch that fuel pressure on road conditions. I'm also going to take a close look at the pump wiring. The car has a little more road grime and grit on it than some cars and I had previous experience with wiring corrosion issues with the fuel pump on other 1900's.
Appreciate the help guys.
