Ok, I have an 02 LS V8. Changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, relay and fuses, but it won't stay started. I have a code P0340, for the camshaft sensor and I changed that too. Everytime I start it, it'll run fine, but once I step on the gas it turns off. I have a few ideas, but I wanted to know if anyone else had some ideas.

Well, if you didn't have a P0340 code, I'd be tempted to look into the TPS and the MAF. However, you do have a code, and you should fix that problem before looking elsewhere.
P0340 does not say "change out the cam sensor." What it does say is "Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit signal problem." You need to check the connector at the sensor, the wiring between the sensor and the PCM, and the connector to the PCM. Other possibilities are the PCM itself, and that your valve timing has slipped. Lastly, there could be damage to the part that the sensor senses.
