Did you ever find out what the problem was? I have an 01 7.3 and will die occasionally when I am idleing. It will also miss every once in a whilie when I am on the highway.

camshaft position sensor will cause this problem.

changed the Camshaft Position Sensor and its all good. Real easy fix. Took about 5 minutes to change out.
