Default weird weird problem, need help

ok, for the past 2 weeks iv been driving on the high way alot, and everyday, while im cruising in 5th gear the car like shuts off, feels and sounds like i just let off the gas.. i push the gas, nothing, no go and no rev, but when i push the clutch in and out its all good and i can keep driving
its like when ur going down the street and u turn ur car off going in what ever gear, and u put it to the "on" position and push the clutch and it starts back up... seems to be just like that
anyone ever heard of this? please help me

EDIT: i thought maybe it was the tranny cuz i just swapped it, and maybe it was slipping out of gear... but its not, it stays in gear and when i push the gas it doesnt even rev

i'm gonna say check the tranny ground, and if it's fine, then you might have a bad ignition switch

Does the car sputter at all or just die?

Are you getting a CEL? Do you have any problems with the speedometer? I had that happen when my Vehicle Speed Sensor was broken. The car would die on the freeway for a couple of seconds and then out of nowhere is would have power again.

Yes it never happen again. The weird thing about it was that the CEL wasn't on but it would still die anyways when the VSS was broken.
