Default LT1 goes down. HELP!!!

Well I was driving my car yesterday and it suddenly shuts off and will not start back.It will turn over just fine and every couple seconds you can hear it trying like hell to crank. It seems as if something is keeping it from starting because it will get pretty close then it will just turn over like its out of gas.
Checked the bleeder valve or whatever on the intake and its getting fuel.It shut off once at random about 3 months ago one time but started back just fine.Someone please help me out here.

I'm new to working on the LT1 also, but it seems that whenever there is a stuttering or no-start condition, people say to check for spark. The OptiSpark modules apparently are prone to failure.
