I have an 89 5.0 with a 302 and an E 303 cam, the other non stock items are 65MM Edelbrock TB, Headers, and K&N cone filter. When I go to start my car in the morning I'll fire it up and unless I stay on the gas it dies? Even If I gas it for a minute and I get out of the car it dies again? I don't know if anyone knows this problem, and if someone has an idea of how to fix it, help!!!
Thanks,
D

Check the throttle body sensors(TPS & IAC).....Try cleaning out the IAC with some carb cleaner and re-installing it..Make sure you TPS voltage is around .998 at idle.....
With this problem it could be a lot of things, but I would check the TPS & IAC first...

It could be a ton of things. Start with the basics, like checking the computer for error codes, looking for vacuum leaks, ect.
