so your primary and secondary voltafe is within spec on the coil?

otherwise if the coils is working and you have power into the dizzy and not going out it should be ICM, but you stated you replaced that?

youve verified fuel? what sprya pattern when cranking? it should be a nice even umbrella shape no dripping.

what were you doing when it shut off? does the rotor spin when you start the engine? connector from coil to dizzy get unplugged or burnt? chain skipped or snapped?

It's my understanding that the magnetic pickup on these distributors is prone to failure. Specifically, the magnet cracks and can cause anything from random missing to outright ignition failure. Short of an ECM issue or wiring between the ignition system and ECM, that's about all that's left in the ignition system.
