Keep in mind when this happens. Is it wet or damp outside? Is the engine at operating temp? How long running before it quits? Are you accellerating or coasting?

Usaully but not always, HEI modules will fail after they get hot but have no problem cold. HEI ignition ciols usually go bad and that's it, they are done.

Maybe a fuel problem. Did you have any problems before the carb rebuild? Was there a problem with the carb before it was rebuilt?

All these questions will help figure out the root cause of your problem.
