Carb question? Maybe...

So if I make a turn with no pressure on the gas pedal, my car will sputter and if I don't get on the gas quick enough it will die.

Also, if I get on the gas pretty hard, then have to let off quickly for whatever reason, it usually will do the sputter and die thing...

Does that sound like a carburator issue? Its got a 4 barrel edelbrock carb, (although it says Weber on the side as well).

I'm thinking maybe the previous owner just threw it on there and called it good? I don't know, but it's pretty irritating.

*Other than those two problems, the motor runs strong and healthy*

sounds like a leaky or damage float to me... I had one that would kill the engine every time I put the brakes on hard...

That's a float issue! Buy a rebuild kit, and pop some new floats in it.
