Default stalling issues

This year after the winter had passed i decided to bring my baby out. first off i had some minor issues which i repaired. it all started when i was driving to work one night. I had to drop someone off and on my way back the car stalled at a red light. i started it back and went on. a few days later it persisted my car would just turn lose all fuel pressure. I tried to figure out what it could be. I changed out my cat to check if it was broke, or clogged, no such luck. then i replaced the fuelpump and filter, and still the problem occured. my brother and i discovered that the wireing harness on my Fuel service unit was worn and the clip was falling off and on while driving. i bought a new unit and was happy trhat it was not quitting on me. but the problem persisted. now my car like to, well the best way of describing it is it deflates when i give it gas, the pedal gets real light the motor revs as usual, but it will not shift, im going up to like 4200 at 30mph flooring it to move out of traffic. ive checked the tranny fluid, changed it, i just changed the spark plugs still not it, any clue if this happened to you what it might be? im on the verge of taking the car to a gm specialist.

thanks for reading , car is an 87 vert
