no codes 3.1 firebird

Im having an electrical issue with my bird. just when i thought i was finished with the electical... while driving sometimes the smallest bump in the road the car will just shut down for less than a second then start up and return to normal operating range. it stalls
it doesnt like to start either, im replacing the flexplate and starter this weekend.
I have good fuel pressure, my injectors are all working that i know of, ive replaced plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil, every fuse in the fuse block as well as every other one i could find. lets see what else oil pan, radiator, battery, battery connections, altinator, every inline fuse i could find, tps sensor, egr valve, Iac sensor, fuel filter, fuel pump (in tank) exhaust, bypassed key security system (resistors in line to create proper ohms to make the system think the correct key is their)... the motor was replaced before i got it and im still having issues. Ive ran a volt meter acrossed the engine bay in several areas and my volts are correct, tps is set correct (i believe)
you would think by now the car would be running like a champ but it still stalls, hard to start cold or warm and it sputters occasionally
the computer is not throwing any codes
anyone have an idea as to what ive missed or over looked?

after reading your post and thinking about my wiring and what I have already done I will look further into the harness to c if i have a short in other places that I havent already fixed. ie the main harnes was rubbing under the steering wheel creating havic on my lighting system. the radio wires were grounding causing my headlights to stay up, the rear wiring was grounding in several areas. Im gonna recheck all of them. thanks
