stalling out after engine is warm

Engine is stalling after the car is warmed up.

Things i changed out and checked:
-Change out tps (old one went bad, unsmooth revv, bogs then rev/hesitation) now revs more smoothly
-Change out AWS solenoid, my old one wasnt even connected because someone snipped the wires
-tighten the the bolts on the BAC,
-Checked vacuums lines
-New Engine harness
still stalling out after the engine is warm?
Could it be the throttle stop screw? or would it be the 3" bonez cat welded on to my RB DP?

The variable resistor adjusts fuel at idle. adjust as per factory spec. (Basically turn CCW until engine sputters, turn CW until engine purrs.) That worked for me.
