Subject: DML: Engine problems? Help?

Well all I went to the track (Silver Dollar Raceway) to see how the truck is

running with the new mods vs. last years times. BIG PROBLEMS...
Last years best run:
14.07 @ 103.9 mph

Friday's 3 runs:
R/T .948 (ZZZZ-ZZZZ)
1/8 10.043 @ 77.95mph
1/4 15.104 @ 97.95mph

R/T .703 (ZZ-ZZ)
1/8 11.120 @ 49.37 ***
1/4 21.008 @ 42.71

R/T .526 (finally woke up)
1/8 10.926 @ 65.75 ***
1/4 16.524 @ 90.84

*** This is where I need help:
Off the line the truck was doing fine. First gear was strong. Second gear
hit hard and I had some wheel hop but when the wheel hop ocurred the engine
just up and cut off on me. I still had it in gear and after about 1.5
second
it started back up, thus explaining the 22 second run as I just eased it
down
the track. After that it was fine, until the second run when it happened
again.
The new mods were and MSD 6AL, MSD 8.5mm. wires, and reprogrammed superchips

computer.
Any ideas of what is going on?
