Does it have the HEI in it are the old points? If it has a HEI installed it could be the module issue. The cheaper HEI units bought off E bay and such use cheaper modules. The GM modules seem to work better and make sure you use the heat sink grease on them as well. It needs 12 volts at all times also just incase you didn't know.

Just for info:
I wouldn't do the Fuel injection until I got it running right. My 2 cents.
I would agree with this. I’ve had similar issues with my zz502. Was starting fine but was getting hot weather, low throttle hesitation. Added a spacer, rerouted fuel lines, and went to hard fuel lines as well. This summer it just started shutting off randomly. Swapped out the distributor, module, and ignition and now no issues.
