Need Help....72 C10 Keeps Dying - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well I figured I would update for anyone that runs in to this same problem. Turns out the problem was in the distributor. It would just quit working for no real reason and at times the coil would quit. The coil issues was most likely the negative post going out from the distributor going out.
Needless to say, everything I researched said that the points are very unreliable so it has been converted to an HEI set up now.
