Do you run foam in the fuel cell?
Pull the cap off the fuel cell vent, check the vent for obstructions.
I do still have the foam in the cell - thanks for the reminder - someone else mentioned that...

MSD's pull ,and need, about 8 amps at WOT . They also get a lot of vibration in our cars.. Put a new high current kill switch in it. Their relatively cheap.

Joey this may sound strange
Years ago Micheal Iacono built the yellow SS camaro car was brand new front to back .
Then it developed a gremlin changed everything msd fuel pump retire
Lee Zane was driving the car. Finally made few runs shutting accessories
Bad electric water pump.
Wouldn’t do it unless under a load Worth a look

With a Data Logger, on my car I was able to take my best run and just superimpose one run over the other....

Look at flash, fall back, EGT, fuel pressure and all of your data inputs.

My old AutoMeter logger had this feature, but I don’t know about racepak

Good luck
