Post Need Help ASAP

I am still in the test phase of my car. It doesnt break up at all but when I am at WOT the car pauses for a second, it is like you hit the kill switch and turned it right back on and then it has all the power again. I am not losing anything electric it seems like it isnt getting spark or fuel for a split second.

has anyone seen this problem before ?

Please give me your advice. i do know that I am running lean on one injector Replacing that tomorrow but I dont think that would be the problem.

Thanks in advance

Car specs it is a 1996 396 stroker with 18lbs of boost. Fast System

Off topic, what kind of number are you seeing with you setup?

What size injectors are you running and what's the duty cycle? Are you running the car with the gas tank fairly low? When the duty cycle is too high or accelerating hard and the pickup in the tank gets uncovered you can have symptoms like you describe. Also rev limiters, etc. If it's a fuel delivery problem (tank baffling, too small of injectors, fuel pressure, etc.) it should show up in the duty cycle.

Check in your FAST program in the MAP AE with a boosted application you dont want any more than about 120. This is basiclly your accelerator pump in FI . Any higher than that and it will experience that symptom.
