305 TBI bogging. HELP!!!!!!

Hey guys my camaro has been bogging when I get on the gas. The car starts to bog and die out like at 60mph and if i try to give it gas the exhaust just starts to pop and I have to pull over and come to a complete stop for it to run fine again. It has turned off as well in the middle of the freeway. The car idles funny sometimes, it'll be at 500rpm and out of no where it goes down like its gonna turn off and comes back up. I have replaced the spark plugs, rotor distributor cap and cables and it kept doing this. I also replaced the Ignition Control Module with a pick a part one 3 times due to the car not starting. The radiator has a slight crack. I don't know why that would cause the problem but i thought I'd let you guys know. Please help this car is my daily i use every day of the week to go to school and work. P.S. try to dumb down your advice I'm 20 and I am not an expert in the mechanics industry, learning as I go though .

Time to check the fuel pressure, spec is 9-13 psi. Autozone has a tbi pressure test kit for rent or purchase.
