Fuel Pump Test

I have A 1961 Galaxie with, I have been told, a 302 c.i. out of a 1969 Mustang. The car has sat for some time with the fuel pump inlet hose disconnected and I want to make sure the fuel pump works. I put the inlet hose in a container of gas and the outlet hose in a catch container and cranked the engine but nothing comes out. I tried this several times with the same results. I also tried this with a Holly pump. Before I installed both pumps, I put white grease on the arm where it contacts the cam and when removed, I saw a good sized contact patch.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks, Gene
