Hollister Hoodlum

Okay so i thought i had my '84 5.0 (carburated) mustang lx fixed. But i found out i was wrong on that part today.
I was driving my car today, luckily i was like a block away from my house, when my car just suddenly lost pretty much all power... i had the pedal on the floor and it was barley going, so i pulled over turned it off, and walked back to my house.

I got a jack and jacked it up, and looked at some stuff, made sure i had a good ground connection, and tried turning it over a couple times, before i realized it wasn't going to start. So i pulled off the ground and cleaned it, and put it back on. Now NOTHING works on the inside. The horn, the lights, soundsystem, nothing.

I just bought a new ground and installed it and nothing changed.

What could make my car totally lose power while driving, i was just driving casual, and i literally had to floor it just to keep it at 30 for a minute, before i could pull over...

I have already replaced the Cap/rotar, new plugs, new ground connection, new stator, new inline fuel filter, i have yet to change out the other fuel filter, but i know i have some kind of electrical problem since nothing electrical inside is working, im going to buy a new ground for the starter as soon as the parts store opens, but im running out of things that i think could possibly be wrong with this thing.

I have had the battery tested about 10 times now and it has tested good everytime.

I am kinda clueless as to what else it could be...

Any ideas?

Check all of your fuses. Check your fusible links. Make sure you are getting power to the coil, starter, and solinoid like you are supposed to.

Check your alternator output and your voltage regulator. I had the same thing happen to me and it turned out to be the alternator.

Okay, well i just got it home, it still runs a little funny, but im working on figuring that out.

It still had a loose ground connection.
