Why not just install a new GEP Optimizer long block?
Please post pics of this rig inside and out.

I'm getting there!
As for the non-flow on fail pump situation. for a failsafe "get you home" kinda thing you might consider adding a couple of tee's one before and one after the LP with a hose and a shut-off valve in the middle. keep it turned off but when your out on the road and no where near a place to get parts or repair. just reach under there and turn the valve open to allow the IP to suck fuel and get you somewhere safe.
I know doing this will add more places for a leak or air intrusion if not kept up with, but may save you $$ on a towing bill in the future. cheap insurance for the cost of a little more to maintain.
On the engine running situation, I know you said there wasn't any codes, but many of us have ran into the issue of when you relocate the PMD that we forget that the resistor is inside the connector of the factory PMD and gets missed when relocating and with replacement PMD's I voted to place my resistor in the extension harness at the IP so I would never forget about it! is there any chance you might be missing that resistor?

Good catch but have placed resistors in all my back up PMD’s so I would not forget them if I change over to another PMD.

I have the extended harness from QST and that ground wire from the terminal connector is entirely too short.
I carefully, using the same tyoe and gauge of wire, spliced into that ground wire and extended it about eight or ten inches.
Now that IP harness plug is accessible out beyond the sides of the intake manifold.
I do not understand why that ground wire would need to be so short ? I guess mainly because if a person kept the PMD in the PMD original location then it would not need to be any longer, but, with our extended PMD harnesses, that plug with that short wire is a PIA to get to, and, I have two spare drivers behind the front bumper and running on another.
Simplified.
