Default cannot figure this out????????

Mods are -f14 cam,pacesetter lt's,ls6 intake

Have had many h/c combo's but never had this problem till now.

Car sputters and backfires under load-(driving in fourth and nailing the gas)
Also when i go full throttle, as soon as it hits 4 grand it sputters and pops and loses power.

Mikey at rapid had it on the dyno for a tune and everytime it hit 4 grand it would do this. Mikey said the fuel was not the problem but check the ignition.

I have checked the plugs and put new wires on it but no dice.
The car is a 98 so i beleive you can switch the left and right coil packs???
Not throwing any codes.

I don't know where to go from here. Pretty stumped at this point.
Any help would be appreciated greatly????????????????

check your battery cables. Maybe, when you hit 4k they rock and short out somewhere.

Check for a bad ground. They can do all sorts of weird things.
