Just to clarify, it was overheating and shutting off so you got an engine swap and now the engine is stalling at times and they think it is a misfire which an ECM will correct?
If this the case, either we are missing part of the story or they didn't do much investigation into the possible causes. Is the check engine light on? If so, what are the codes?

The primary things we need to check are fuel pressure and for a vacuum leak.
