Well he said he changed "all sensors", so I'm assuming maf was included. This is a very interesting situation, I am anxious to hear the root of the problem as is BigDaddy I'm sure.
I'm taking the car to John Spears this morning so he can probe the wiring harness and see if he finds anything unusual. I'll check back in when I get home to let you know what I find out. BTW..........check out his website, he does alot of efi conversions, also check out the video he has of the company car............................www.speartech.com

Are you using stock type MAF's? If you are, with a car that fast, you are almost certainly experiencing MAF-dropout. Can you make a DS run available for people to look at?

Turn on the laptop and get Directscan going.
Get a floppy disk and put it in.
Load up an old run that you want to save on the floppy by using File Menu, Load buffer.
Go to File Menu, Save Buffer.
Hit TAB about 3 times and the highlighted box will move down to select the drive. Hit the UP arrow to move to "A" drive (instead of "C").
When "A" is highlighted, hit TAB again to go back up to the filename.
Name the file, enter whatever comment, hit enter and it should now be saved on the floppy.
If you want to email the file, add it as an attachment.
Let us know if you need help!

I just posted a similar thread, my car is pretty much stock, and after setting the tps, putting new plugs in, synthetic oil, regulator....the thing cuts off when I let off the gas. Idles ok, throws a code 44 every once in a while. Maybe we have the same problem.
Oh, also curious if its converter related, because I just replaced the fuse which was throwing a code. Can't remember it cutting out much before doing that.

Cam sensor....
Just my .02 worth....
I know you've changed alot of pieces, but I didn't see anywhere where you changed the cam sensor, or verified that it's not 180 degrees off.
I had one of my GN's experience a very similar problem, and it turned out to need a new cam sensor. After the switch, the car ran great, because all of the other sensor and switches were also new!
Good luck!

.......update
Yeah......I need some help
Eric Stage 1; when I hit tab and get the drives highlited, the up and down arrows will not move to the a drive. I get a Abort,retry,fail message
Update......If I'm going down the road say 20 mph, and gradually ease up to 40 mph, then let off the throttle, everything is fine. But if I'm going down the road at 20 mph and aggresively go to 50mph(but not under boost) and then take my foot off the throttle, the rpms' will drop to 500 and try to die. For the first time yesterday I realized that the DS showed the LV8 would go to 85 or so then drop to about 60 when I lifted, but under a load, but not under boost, the LV8 would drop to 25 or 30. This is when the car tries to die. Any help?
