Well that fixed that problem but now it sorta feels the same way when it gets around 4k rpms. It will pull good until that spot then it feels like it has no more power to pull when it usually pulls the best around that rpm.

Could it be the fuel filter stoping up, maybe the muffler is clogged, maybe the tune on my truck is fudgin up? Im lost

The P0420 code is the cats not functioning properly. Since you hacked the converters off that fixed that problem. Whens the last time you did a tune up? Possible fuel problem like others stated i would think.

douche bag..

if you set the p0420 code before the cats and you cut them off it will come back on because the computer will detect the cats are not there..you need to have the codes turned off in the computer...stick a fuel pressure guage on it drive it around and notice the pressure when it runs rough

Ok service engine light came on again for a day then went back off the next day so its been off for the last week.

Ok I noticed somethin. The truck acts up worse the warmer it is out side. Like today it was cold outside so the truck ran better... not perfect but better than normal but the other day when it was warm out side the truck had the problem worse than today but either way it ends up at the same place (were it will spudder bad and cut off sometimes at acceleration) just takes longer the cooler it is outside.
