Default fuel probs

I have an Aeromotive A-1000 pump and fuel rails with 42.5lb injectors. The regulator is set at 56lbs, so my problem is when Im at open throttle when the car is at normal temperature the fuel pressure drops. Are my injectors not doing the job cause they arent big enough or is there another problem? There is no leak and I cleaned out the filters and had my gauge and regulator checked all are working correctly so im kinda lost here.
thanks

Need more info.

What power are you running out at? Does it run fine til it warms up? Was it fine for a while and now it desided to crap out? Did you just change setup and now are running out of fuel?.....

It ran fine for a year and then the follwing year it took a crap whenever it warms up to normal temp. It also runs fine til it warms up, not running out of fuel either. It is stock block ls1, procharged with 8lbs, 6 liter heads, and comp cam, ls6 intake, hooker long headers, with a loudmouth, the fuel system, with more minor mods, it ran 560rwhp
