Tried to race a Z28...Off the line I smoked him...then as soon as my foot was all the way to the floor and the R's started to climb...the car started to spurt and sputter...loosing power as the R's climed...how embarasing (like my spelling) ...

This is nearly a bone stock 89 5.0...has a mass air and fenderwell BBk pipe.

What to check 1st? What will fix this?

seems to work fine when normal cruising though!

Yeah...I pulled over and checked the wires etc...turned the car off and re tried...did it again! I need to replace that anyway...I will check that...but keep the suggestions coming!
