Fuel pressure regulator came in so I threw it on over lunch.  It wasn't a miracle fix, but I think the engine sounded like it was running a bit better.  Other parts should be trickling in over the weekend.

 

What's the fuel pressure w. and w/o vacuum now? Have you tested your vacuum yet?

I ended up getting sick this weekend, so no time spent on the truck.  Hopefully next weekend I can go rent the tools again and make some progress.

Alright, I installed the new fuel pump and took it for a test drive.  Initial drive (about 5 miles) feels like a different truck. 

 

When I first tried to start it, it cranked for a LONG time... enough that I was worried I hooked something up wrong.  I couldn't hear the pump turn on when I turned the key to ON like my last one (my previous pump was really loud), so I got pretty demoralized.  Cranked it for a bit longer and it fired up.  Let it idle while I cleaned up the garage, then took it for a spin.  Accelerates when I hit the pedal, no misfires, stutters, or bogging down.  It is early for me to say "everything is fixed," but I'm feeling pretty good initially.  I will know for sure when I start it up in the morning after letting it sit overnight.

It started right up this morning!  Drove great!  It is like having a new truck...  Thanks everyone for all of the help!
