At least you're to the point that it's worth chasing all of the small stuff. I have a 53 F100 that I completely built from the axles up. I still have a few small issues to track down, but I'm saving them for when I retire.

one of the techs at the shop i work at helped me test it yesterday, electrical diag is not my strong point, the diodes in the alt went out and fried the volt reg. new ones are under my desk Saturday im bringing it in and swaping them out, along with fixing any wires in the processes

So if better fuel flow helped it some.. perhaps it points to it still being a fuel problem.
