Default Ls1 TA struggling to stay on

Hey they Ls1Tech. I'm having trouble with my 99 trans am. It's irritating me because it's only occurring during cold weather. Specially with this TEXAS bipolar weather. Ok so today it was 76-80° outside. And my car was running like a champ!(no check engine light on) Then all of a sudden weather changed at night to 38° car was struggling to stay on.(check engine light came on) I would literally go 50ft hit a stop sign and it would die! It did this for a good 15 minutes. I always let my vehicles warm up in the cold but this one ihave to warm up by keeping my foot on the gas because if I let off it would lose all power and stall again! Only Mods are egr delete n headers. I have replaced the battery and alternator already. And it keeps doing the same. I just recently bought a racetronix fuel pump because I'm thinking that could be the problem. What do y'all guys think? Please help Ls1Tech!
