Default fuel pressure drop

Hi guys,
First time writer long time reader. I have a 91 L98 with a p600b 8lb procharger. At full throttle I get about a gear and a half before the fuel pressure starts jumping around. It drives good during normal driving. It acts like it is starving for fuel. Are one of my fuel pumps failing? How do I know which one? Your help is greatly appreaciated!

The stock pump can't pump enough and the inline pump that ATI supplys is a
P.O.S Take it out of the line and put a Walbro 340 or accel 74702 or a Bosh 0-580-254-984 The acell and bosh are good for a lot more power than the walbro but they cost much more also just depends on what your goals are for power.
