Default hesitating stroker at wot

I went to track and experienced a major disappointment. The stang hesitates bad!!!!! At wot it is extremely sluggish until 2800 rpms. Any Ideas of what could be wrong. I am open to anything. Thanks

not sure but that might be a bit high, ask some guys with strokers... that may be causing you to run real rich until you get the revs up. how is it after 2800?

It pulls real hard after 2800. I may have to much fuel, but what is the right amount for thirty pound injectors. OH also i have over 7 thousand in a motor that won't light up the tires without the help of the brake.

50psi is too high, you should be okay with the 30#ers at 40psi.

injector flow rate is measured at 40psi.
