Default LT1 dies at warm up

The issue started by dieing after driving it but would crank right back up slowly got worse over days. Now it will die while just idling once it gets to temp. I took it to have it looked at and it wouldnt die for the mechanic then died again next day. Starting cheap i replaced the fuel fitler to avail.

After reading other threads on here i just went and unplugged my MAF and the car didnt die on me. So i plugged it back in and played with it for over an hour and continued to run.

Is it possible the MAF is dirty and thats what makes it intermediate? or should i be looking at somthing else.

One more thing i have noticed is that when i "test" is in the afternoon approx 34ish (today-after filter-and mechanic) is works but when i run it in the am 10s to 20s is when it dies. Is it possible the colder air could be causeing somthing?

Thanks for your help!!!
