Scott,
This is probably a dumb question, but have you checked the choke? On my Caprice, the automatic choke doesn't work, so I have to turn it on to start, and once she warms up, turn it off.
I believe that I do fine at WOT when it's cold, but not when it's warmed up - if I havent turned the choke off that is.
Just a thought,
Ben

So I've noticed now that a WOT I can cruise for a few seconds, then the motor cuts way back like it's not getting enough fuel. It's ok at Idle and low and mid speeds, but can't maintain WOT very long. I pulled the supply line which was going through an auxillary electric pump first( I think someone did this as a backup at some point, I never use it so I'm doing away with it), it was a little dirty, then attempted to pull the supply tube that goes into the tank. I managed to destroy the supply line, but I can make another one easy, it's just copper tube that is bent. All my ignition looks good, fuel filter clean, maybe a weak fuel pump or just a clogged pickup tube (the sock screen on the end probably never has been changed or cleaned) any other ideas?
