One of the peers before me rigged a fan switch so u can manually turn the fan on and off for the radiator... So it could be the problem... It ran better but still stalled prior to me turning the fans on...

test the temp sensor on the front of the water pump. the list here gives what ohms it should read at that temp. 4th Gen LT1 F-body Tech Articles

Could also be that the IAC is not working properly and not controlling the idle speed.
