92 tpi fuel issue?

I have 92 tpi trans am. We hit a bump hard during a left hand turn last weekend and the car died. This is the first time this had happened. We were able to get the car restarted and it was ok until about a mile up the road. The car stalled on hard brake at a red light. I pushed it into a gas station and ended up getting it towed. I thought I had it traced to a bad oil pressure switch. Replaced both the switch and the fuel pump relay. The car started right up. Now if I come to a stop or make a turn at any speed the car dies like an off switch is pressed. The car has good fuel pressure at Idle. I do not have a hose on my fuel pressure gauge to see if the fuel pressure is cutting out. I can confirm I have spark when the condition is occuring. Im guessing it is the fuel pump or a loose connection. Anyone else have and ideas before I pull the tank.

If it cuts out like an off switch, that sounds like ignition. With fuel, there's often enough residual fuel in the rail for it to stumble for a second or two before stalling.
