Default HELP strange power cut please

Hi to you I need your HELP PLEASE all i haven’t been writing over here because I was busy rebuilding my motor after i destroyed three pistons.
make a story short and the rebuilt is done , i took the car to the dyno and didn’t have one clean nor decent run tell know , my car is a corvette twin turbo LPE last i have made with it was 672WHP dyno jet with old set up.

PLEASE HELP ME , now i am in a big dilemma and i am lost , while the car is on the dyno and i am WOT to do a tune the car starts very smooth and accelerates great all the way up to about 4K RPM and some times 5K RPM and it cuts in a very strange way you can have a look at the video here under at the minute 1:01
You can see that something very strange happens and the check engine comes on for a moment and then disappears ??????????????????


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc3AiiiHO1k




Some thought was to a faulty Crank sensor, some a faulty Camshaft sensor, and some to faulty MAP sensor , when i did the DTC with the HP tuner it showed a miss fire but not permanent HELP

Here in video 2 you can see the tacho meter bouncing at about 5Krpm or so but the car did not CUT like it did the last couple of times but the tach bounced any gusses any takes HELP PLEASE

thanks


Please note this same thred was posted to COREVETTEFORUM and on the forced induction forum ?

Fuel psi where it should be?
Plug gap too wide?
Valve springs good?
All wiring checked?
Wideband sensor in use?

Post your tune.

Maybe the PCM is loosing power/restarting?

I would think with a misfire, the CEL would stay lit and not on/off without cycling the key...

You've gotta have something going on electrically... Maybe something with a motor mount? or a ground?

I think you are loosing power somewhere for some reason. I think that's causing the misfire and everything else.

The reason I said motor mount, is I've seen engines not completely secured (ie bad mounts) move, and when they move, cause wires to pinch or etc.

In the second video your wideband completely kills off and looks like it would if the motor wasn't even running ---'s.

...And to top it off, this is a new setup for you.

That's what is nice about a second set of eyes...
Do you notice in the video the speedo staying pegged?
Maybe your just hitting the speed limiter?

Does the motor actually die?
