Default 95 dodge ram 5.9L problem. Help!!

I have a 95 dodge ram 1500 with a 360 in her. I can start it up cold and it will run fine until it is fully warmed up. Then it starts to misfire, backfire,loose all power and sometimes it will stall, and i have to wait 45secs to a minute until it will start again. I have changed out the MAP sensor, the TPS sensor, the cat, and the coil. Im running out of ideas and any kind of help will be greatly appriciated.

if its extra rich or lean, i would guess the 02 sensor.
but if its backfiring through the throttle body, then its sounds timing related, which would point to crank position sensor or cam position sensor.

if you don't have a scanner, it might be worth taking it to someone to monitor it with a scanner, and see what's malfunctioning

If it ends up being one, I'd check out the camshaft. The camshaft dosn't come into play until it warms up. Crank would be all the time (Had this problem on mine), except reverse, backfires through intake, etc until it warmed up. If you end up replacing camshaft or crankshaft, spend the money and go OEM.
