Assuming this is the original fuel pump and filter. If you can, check fuel pressure at idle and at 3000RPM.

Not exactly sure what you mean by stalls at 3K......

Does the car bog down under heavy acceleration from a start, and doesn't go over 3K rpms?

the engine and power steering turn off at the 3,000 to 3,500 rpm range. There is no struggle and no jerking. Just shuts off.
I could be going 70 miles an hour or 30 but when I reach 3000 RPMs it shuts off
