Either fuel or spark. Check to make sure you have both. Could be your fuel pump or your TFI module is going out. Hard to say.

i got a 255 in the tank and its dumpin plenty of fuel , swapped both the computer and the distributor spark seems to be strong , sounds like plenty of compression , plugged the code reader in just to see what it would spit out and its not getting any power to the port , pretty sure i checked all the grounds , it sucks cuz one thing i hate doing is wiring

Check the ground wire directly below the ECU. Sounds like the harness isn't getting a good ground connection.
