Default Problem Engine Runs Like Crap HELP!!!!! 1994 Camaro Z28

So I took out my Camaro today and put it in Drive and started crusing down the road. Ran perfect, shift kit made it shift like a champ.

4 - 5 Minutes into driving, on the take off the car would like bog down on the take offs. Then once I got moving, around mid throttle it would just spudder and backfire just a little bit

But once I floored it, it would go like hell. Its like whenever my engine gets warmed up it does it. Im thinking its the transmission and torque converter but I honestly have no idea and if its just a simple sensor I would like that alot better then pulling the tranny

I recently disconnected my Mass Air Flow sensor also, because for some reason whenever I had it connected it wouldnt let my cooling fans come on.
I read on another post with someone with a similar problem to me its the o2 sensors or the mass airflow?

PLEASE!!! Anybody have any ideas on why my car is running like crap? Or why my cooling fans dont come on when the Mass Airflow Sensor is connected?
