Sounds like you only have fuel presssure during cranking, power up the pump and see if it keeps running, the Vats will not kill the engine once running on the road. I am assuming this is not a problem with spark/injector pulse. Check the fuel pump relay also.

Check 20a ecm battery fuse. If ok, check for injector pulse/spark when it dies and won't start, post back results.
