or timing
or inoperative leading coils/plugs
or plugged fuel filter
or weak fuel pump/pump voltage
or large vacuum leaks
start with the compression test> then check the TPS and adjust along with a sweep test> then check timing> then check fuel pressure.

you will have to fabricate something, there are companies that sell passthrough connectors but for ideas i would suggest checking the 3rd gen section. many of the same issues they run into with larger pumps apply the same to the series 5 FC fuel pumps.
the benefit you have is you can swap in a series 4 fuel pump and sending unit housing which will bolt to the series 5, the sending unit needs to be swapped out and the arm that hold the pump extended since the series 5 tanks hold a few more gallons and are deeper. that is what i have done in the past to upgrade series 5 cars for high horsepower without any of the more painful modification shenanigans. series 4 already have decent and already sealed bulkhead connections, series 5 has a tiny pinned junction block, it generally cannot carry much more than about 10 amps before it burns up.
just lay the series 4 unit next to the series 5 and you will see what you need to do.
