What kind of setup you running as far as carb./engine? It could be that the new pump is putting out too high pressure for your carb I dont know. Cut the Edelbrock carbs can only take like 6psi I think. Double check you timing as well because the exact same thing happened to me and it was because my distributer clamp broke so the distributor would torque itself around when I accelerated hard and under load.
