Just replaced the fuel pump now the engine bogs down and dies when put in gear and throttle is engaged.

Any help is appreciated."

The problem you mentioned has nothing to do with timing just so you know.
Carbs and idle jets is where you start, maybe spark test, compression etc, link and sync ?
Spend some time and post the problem in great detail, history of the engine, what led to this problem, What you have done so far and I know the guys on this site will nail down trust me. Good luck"
