Default motor dieing when going from drive to reverse

ok to start out with the motor and computer was in my 99 ss 6 speed and ran fine it has the 224/224 563/563 on 112 TR cam, it was tuned by comp cams in memphis

next i took the motor out and put it in a rock crawler same motor and computer, the only thing that is not the same was do not have room for long tubes right now put it runs fine at idle and when i drove it down the road but when i went to turn around going from drive to reverse it dies and does not want to run right untill i get it moving again so what does everyone think and thanks for your suggestion

Is the trans controled by the PCM or is it seperate? If so, did you switch your PCM to an A4 calibration?
