car stalls
Got a problem with my 95 supercharged LT1. the car starts up fine, I put a few miles on it to fully warm up and out of nowhere the car just stalls out. I try to start it,it cranks but wont start. wait about a hour and it will start but Ill go a mile or two and it stall out again. The first tow truck driver said it sounds like a fuel pump problem, so I replaced the fuel pump,same thing happened so its not the pump what else could it be. Anybody else have this happen

Also, symptoms of a failed/failing ignition control module.
When the unit gets hot, the engine will shut down, and not
restart until it cools
Easy fix. Read through the threads and determine if that is the problem:

If changing the module, ensure you apply the grease that comes with the part.....important!

Due to the $$ and the hassle involved, the opti-spark is something that you want to diagnose as being the problem before you go throwing one at the car to see if "that part" was the problem.
Are you able to pull any codes?
I know you changed out the fuel pump. Did you replace the two relays?
Any way to rig a fuel pressure gauge so that you can see the fuel pressure when it stalls?
Did you put the supercharger system in or was it there when you bought the car?
