Engine cuts out (sometimes) when I accelerate 700 1985

Here goes again. Start car, idles perfect. Always starts without a problem. Car can be cold or hot, doesn't seem to matter when the problem occurs. When engine cuts out tachometer doesn't drop. If I am in motion and problem happens I put car in neutral, momentarily turn off ignition and start back up and this usually temporarily takes care of the problem. Probably til I shift or have a significant change in throttle. If I disconnect throttle switch the effect is pretty much the same as my problem. Things I have replaced/checked so far; Fuel pressure regulator, rotor,cap,wires, plugs are good, also connector at back of distributor(broken of course),coil, resoldered fuel relay, AMM hose in good shape,new engine wire harness, throttle switch, cleaned throttle body, flame trap clean, new O2 sensor, cleaned grime off of knock sensor. Any ideas?
