Default help plz-Idling problem

I'm working on a 2004 Z06. I just replaced the lifters, and when I drive the car, and come to a stop. It will sometimes stall out. It has a healthy cam long tube headers, and no cats, over size throtle body. Don't know any of the specs. Bank 2 is running rich, and posible has bad o2 sensors. I cleaned the throtle body and did a idle relearn but no luck yet. Any sugestions

I would find out, call Comp and speak to a tech.
the only other thing is a leak in the intake track.
