Bro I know you are sick of spending money on her and I went through a similar phase. My truck was bucking and spitting and acting an arse! I tried a few things and found my Crankshaft Sensor was bad and giving false signals at times which in turn had my injectors firing all kinds of Fu*ked up! I changed both Cam and Crank sensor since they kinda work in unison. Think they were $50 together and easy to replace. I know you don't wanna "throw" money at her anymore, but I'd put money on this being your issue. Mine never even thru a code either. NOr did it when I had TPS issues like you went thru.
Now this one may sound too simple, ok. Batteries have several cells inside them and often times through the changes in climate (summer/fall) a cell can sh*t the bed on you. Now, I have personally driven mine and other cars with bad batteries that still start the truck and let you drive and never leave you stranded for a year at times!!!! The truck will run and for the most part pretty decent, but you are not getting full PCM power nor full spark, nor accurate injector pulsing due to the small voltage /amperage drop due to the dead cell. Most battery checkers won't catch this as they load test it and it often passes the cheap lil gizmo checkers they have at auto parts stores. If your truck doesn't fire like RIGHT UP FAST, but more of a couple second start, then replace that battery. If you dunno how old that battery is, replace that biatch!! So spend another $150 and be happy with your truck once again.
By the way I also OWN a Vette and my Quad Cab SRT10 kicks my Vette in the balls!

Ok ordered a new Camshaft Position Sensor and Crankshaft Position Sensor. Hopefully its the last thing I have to do to get her to run good. I called the STEALership today. They want 115 p\hr just to look at it. Wish I made 115 an hour! Thats rape. No lube. Elephant doing it with a mouse RAPE. Anyways... parts will be here Saturday or Monday. Ill let you guys know.
Nice looking Corvette by the way! Any mods? I still might pick one up even if I keep the DAWDGE haha
