Put the old fuel pump back on
Put rubber fuel line with inline filter back on
Lengthened the accelerator to governor linkage by 1/8″
Took a test drive and the passing gear seemed to still be there AND she didn’t try to die at complete stops while in D… Problem solved?!

Adjusted throttle to carb linkage to within distance specs
Pulled on the throttle linkage and adjusted the accelerator to governor linkage
Took a test drive and the passing gear came alive!
However, at stop signs it seemed the car was stuck in two gears and just wanted to die (In D, but not in L)

Rechecked the timing
Mark lined up perfectly after warming Stella up
Pressed on the gas and mark moved about an inch away from the mark
Took a test drive… Decided the power is there, just not shifting into a lower gear
