I hope to find out more as I check things out. One thing tho, would the OD kickdown switch have anything to do with this since it seems to happen when the gas pedal is pushed tot he floor?

Most definitely. Your OD relay may not be functioning properly. The kickdown switch should kill the ignition momentarily. But the engine shouldn't die. When it happens, you should check the ignition and see if you have juice to the coil with the key on. If not, possibly the OD relay is sticking.
