Ok, so if the carb is installed on the truck and you are standing in front of the grill leaning inward and looking down the throat of the carb, lets call the front of the carb throat six o'clock, and the back, twelve ..got it? The outlet hole for the accelerator pump should be at about 11:56 on the inner wall of the carb throat down about 1/4' below the line separating the lower bowl from the upper cover. See if you can poke a wire in there and get some fuel flowing.
I know you already got a carb on order, but find that darn hole and clear it just for the heck of it.
