I could be your running out of fuel. What size injectors do you have on that thing? Also are you still using your stock fuel pump?

Injectors..

The injectors are stock along with the fuel pump. I didnt change them. Does it need bigger injectors or more fuel pressure? THKS

Too small of injectors would just lean it out not shut it off. And your stockers should be OK anyway.

Do you mean the engine is actually dying to where you have to physically restart it? If so, that's something much different than simply running out of fuel.

Cutting off..

Yeah it totally shuts down. Since I'm moving I just jump it back off with the clutch. It never hits any kind of a rev limiter.

That's very strange.......... I honestly have no idea what that's about. You need to hook it up to a laptop and see what's going on as it happens.
