fed up with the 408
standard ignition. But it ran great before and still runs great up top. going to try swaping the intake. and ckecking the stall of the tc. Could be the sprag went out on it or the aluminum housing for it. Unlikely but got to entertain all ideas.
If none of these work getting rid of the motor and truck and buying a cummins.

Solved! (99% sure)
Muscle motors said that I had too much cylinder pressure and I was detonation. they were right. On the hiway today under load i could hear it so i kept out of the throttle.
Why was this not happenig before?
Because as you may have known from past threads i was given the wrong piston rings in my kit from indy. The ring were causing blow by and relesing this pressure.
So Now I will have a cam designed for this motor and not one recomended from x company.
I was telling my bro who built the motor my specs on cam and he said right away that that cam sucks *** for a stroker.
Problem solved(verify in a few weeks)
