Ignition switches were fairly common for other issues on them, mostly headlamps, radio and hvac turning on and off.

Does it restart immediately after it stalls? The ICM and MAF usually won't restart until they cool down for a while. I've also had a few issues with cam sensors. A cam sensor usually won't cause a stall tho.

Edit: I also had a Buick with a 3.8 that had loose terminals at the ICM connector, would run perfect for a while then just stall. Would occasionally restart. I could make it stall by manipulating the ICM connector while it was running. I have the terminals and the tools to repin the connector if it turns into this.
Sometimes it immediatly starts and sometimes not. I played with the icm and pcm harness and nothing. Still won't start and when its running if I play with the harness it does not stall.

It always cranks, just wont fire sometimes. When it does start back up immediatly I have to hold the gas down to keep it running it will dump black smoke and sound like it has a huge cam, then it will clear itself out and run perfect..until it stalls again.
