Default Help....fuel starvation?

Help...... Got my nova on the the road today and ran into a problem. It's a LSA with a gm computer (e67) gm wire harness and a Vaporworx controller with a cts-v pump.

I ran the car up and down my road (about 4 miles) and it ran great. Accelerated hard and overall very good.

I let it sit in my driveway about 5 minutes and went to move it back in my shop. It seemed to crank a little long but fired up.

I went to take it back down the road an hour later. It started normal. I took off and about 1/4 mile it kinda hesitated. I accelerated harder and it just died. I pulled into a driveway and looked things over and couldn't find any thing. It started and as soon as I accelerated it would die. Did this three times. It would basically idle, but when I would try to accelerated it would die.

Also, I had to wait a couple of times because I wouldn't hear the fuel pump kick on after it died.

Any ideas? It ran great an hour before but then just acts like its simply running out of gas.

I had about 6-7 gallons in it. I put a fuel pressure gage back on it in the garage immediately and it was at 60 psi at idle. If I would wack the gas it would drop to 57-58psi momentarily.

Any ideas? I'm lost.
