Car died and need some suggestions!

Hey, I got a new set up installed on my evo 8! I put a FP red, shearer o2 dump, buschur race intercooler with lower intercooler pipe, aem wideband and 1000cc pte injectors! the place installed everything but the 1000cc injectors, because they could not tune it until a couple of weeks after, so it was running stock evo 8 injectors with a 255 walbro fuel pump! A week into driving the car it was fine then the car stalled and died, it would just crank and not turn over! I thought the float on the pump might have been messed up and was showing me a false reading on the gauge, so I put more fuel in it and it started up after awhile! I drove it for a couple more weeks and finally got it tuned with the 1000cc injectors in it, it ran fine for a week and on Fathers day it died again and just cranked and didn't turn over! I thought the pump was bad so I changed the pump and after it was installed it fired right up, I brought it to my friends house to fix an exhaust leak and fixed it and took it out for a ride and it was fine! Brought it back to my friends house and parked it. I left and tried to go home and it just cranked and would not turn over again. I checked the fuses I checked the relays, We popped a fuel line off and realized that I'm not getting any fuel to the engine! But I'm all out of ideas of what it can be right now! Do you have any idea or input on my situation? thanks I appreciate it!

not sure if you disconnected the fuel lines... make sure you didn't reverse them...

Clogged line? Maybe try using some injector cleaner and see if it flushes the lines out
