Default 94 z28 surging at idle and during 1 & 2 gears

Hello everybody, well my car had been parked for about a year, recently I tried to start it up n it takes about 2 to 3 tries then it surges at idle and during 1st & 2nd gear unless I raise the rpms up. I replace the opti, fuel pump, maf, spark plugs, wires. Its also giving me dtc codes 27 and 48. Anyone know what it could be? Its a stock lt1 with cai, mid tubes and borla cat back. Thanks

Code 42 has to do with your ICM; Code 42- Ignition control circuit (ignition module). Check wiring and connections from ignition module and ecm. Replace module only after verifying wiring and connections are not shorted or open.
Your Code 27 reads EGR vacuum control solenoid circuit. Check the EGR solenoid wiring and connections.
Both of the problem would easily explain your problems getting her started and the surge at idle.

If I deleted the egr system do I have to tune the ecm? Could that be the problem? I'm getting a lq4 in my rcsb 08 silverado so I think I might just swap that lt1 for the 5.3
