have you checked the voltage to the pump yet? If you are going through pumps that would be the first thing I look at. Seconf I would look for foreign matter in the tank ie rust or corrosion. That would clog it causing stress and eventual failure. Next I would check the lines to make sure they can handle the flow given to them this would be like running a 1" charge pipe on a 60+ trim turbine.

yeap! tank dirty, check fuel pump wires, clog fuel filter or line...also clean carb fuel bowls. Hard to really tell with a "running like ****" problem.

if cranking floats down u mean lowered the float level, u got it too low and it's running the carb out of gas. and yes i have the same problem with it bogging on hard cornering. it's just the characteristics of the holley due to the way they're positioned on the intake(sideways) than the way they're normally run on a V8.
