I don't mess with LT1's but you may want to post in the Forum specific to LT1's and give more details on what codes it's giving, etc

If you change every part in the car you'll get it sooner or later. Or you can start testing and find out what's happening and not throw parts at it. Just a thought....

Get the ICM tested at autozone. Get them to test it multiple times. Test the coil using Shbox's method. Test fuel pressure WHEN THE CAR IT ACTING UP.

Does it reach operating temperature then dies? How long until it re-starts?

Silly question here but that's what I usually ask: Have you replaced the fuel filter?
