I have a 2000 ford mustang v6 with a cold air intake, springs struts and shocks and rear anti sway bar. I believe my class is TESP but not sure What do you think?

ESP would be correct, BUT if you are on street tires i'd pick one of the ST classes for the MUCH better PAX. They are done by tire width.
ST, STS, STR (AWD) – 225 mm STX (AWD), STU (AWD) – 245 mm STR (2WD) – 255 mm STX (2WD) – 265 mm STU (2WD) – 285 mm

THey are done by a lot more than just tire width, there are factors such as engine displacement, wheel width, number of seats, NA or FI etc.... Mustangs would be eligible for STX and STU only. They have too much displacement for ST/STS and STR is done by inclusion list only and since mustangs are not specifically listed they cannot run STR.

D Stock (DS) ;D
With the a reprogrammed ECU: Street Touring Class U (STU) as long as the reprogramming meets what the rule book allows, Street Prepared Class B (BSP), or Street Modified Class (SM)

If the Flash does NOT change your boost map at AT ALL then STU... if it ups the boost, then BSP

However, the question of the body parts will decide it. If they are replaced with any other body panel (of any fire-resistant material) that vaguely resembles the original shape, then you are XP legal (or EM, if you prefer). If they are taken off and not replaced (missing off the car entirely), then you are only technically AM legal with a safety kill switch installed.

All welding has been repair only (so far...muhaha) Heater coil and A/C holes in firewall closed off(not welded) Well to be stock you would have had to have made your '79 Farimont, just one model and not a combination of many. Removing the heater core kicks you out of everything up to and including SM. Swapping the engine kicks you into SM at least, but you have already removed yourself from there. It is CP legal (I think). At this point it doesn't matter. "17.2. D. Replacement of any chassis component (e.g. subframe) in its entirety by one of alternate construction, unless specifically permitted, shall result in the vehicle being "in excess" of these rules and weight penalties and/or competitive adjustments may apply." "17.11 OTHER A. Vehicles prepared in excess of Solo allowances and prepared up to either the current GCR are permitted to compete in their respective Prepared classes. Section 17.8.B.7 minimum track requirements apply. Minimum weight will be 110% of the Solo minimum weight from Appendix A plus any Solo weight penalties (wheel size penalties, etc.). Vehicles taking advantage of this allowance may use the Solo Rules or the Club Racing GCR (General Competition Rules) allowances in whole, in part, or in combination. Cars which are not listed in the GCR may not use this allowance and are limited to the modifications allowed in section 17. For those cars which have been delisted from the current year GCR, the appropriate specifications will be developed and added to Appendix A upon member request. An exception to the GCR will be that open cars are permitted, provided they comply with all provisions of Section 17 pertaining specifically to open cars. The following items listed in the GCR, while recommended, are not required: Logbooks, annual inspections, roll cage, on-board fire systems, hand held fire extinguisher, scattershield/chain guards, master switch, steering wheel lock removal, window safety net, windshield safety clips and rear window safety straps, and braided steel brake lines. Single Inlet Restrictors (SIRs) are not required. Due to the extent of modifications permitted on GT-derived cars classed within the Prepared category, it is possible for a replica car to meet the legality requirements for the corresponding original model provided that the engine, track, and wheelbase remain within the allowed specifications. In such a case the replica is considered legal for Prepared, provided it correctly meets all of the applicable GCR specifications. The 10% increase in minimum weight does apply to such cars." I think this means your car needs to weigh 3300 lbs. for CP but I am not sure. These changes put you into Prepared. Is your hood legal for CP? "An alternate hood is allowed which has a bulge no more than four inches, measured off of the original base model hood, for induction clearance. The bulge may open to the front, to the rear, or to either or both sides. If the original base model hood has a 2 inch bulge, then an addition of 2 inches is allowed, if the base model has a 3 inch bulge, then 1 inch is allowed, etc. There is no allowance for non-standard heat extraction vents."

I never even considered CP (I rarely do). That would probably be a good fit tho.

If I ad a factory LSD to a car that it was an option for in that same year and model then it should be stock class legal?

Only if it was an option for not just that model, but that exact trim level etc... basically It would have had to be possible for the car to roll off the assembly line in the EXACT configuration as yours except with an LSD. If for example your integra is a RS, and the LSD was only an option on the GS (just an example, I have no idea what the availability was), then you cannot. or if you have, for example, manual windows and the LSD only came in cars with power windows, then again, not stock.
