Check your Fuel Pump. "Slammation" has nothing to do with this at all. Does the brake work when the car shut down??

Brakes work, I didnt think so, but twice out of the 5 times it stopped on me today it hit a hard bump - just stating some more info.
Replaced fuel pump last month

Sounds like something in the dizzy. Possibly coil over-heating.

when the problem is occurring and you crank, does the tach move at all? or is it dead still?

I'm with this one, maybe you went to a junkyard and grabbed a dizzy and it has the same problems. I had this exact same issue and it ended up being the dizzy after replacing it twice.
