How long have you had the Park Avenue motor in it?
Have the symptoms been there since the replacement?
Did you change the computer and PROM in the computer--or at least the PROM?
 
Feeling the type of stalling and getting more conditions about when it stalls would help. How many miles on the car? On the motor?
 
P071 may be due to MAF, vacuum leaks, and some other things. The MAF sensor can be cleaned with spray after taking it off-two screws, security type screws.
 
Fuel pump problem, low pressure after warming up.
 
Crankshaft position sensors do funny things.
 
The intake screen ont he end of the throttle body should be there. Is it? That is the honeycomb screen that straightens the airflow before the MAF sensor.
 
Try spraying carb cleaner around all the hoses and the edge of the upper intake. Some have found hoses dry rotted or split near the ends especially in areas that get some gas fumes or high heat.
 
Remove and clean the EGR valve.
 
Other mentions have been the lower seals on fuel injectors age due to the heat and need replacement--cheap and easy.
 
But diagnosis is important, otherwise you're just throwing money at the problem.

On certain motors a belt can be found that's shorter and just bypass the pulley for it. Others have a pulley that replaces the compressor which requires removing the actual compressor.
