I just bought a 1979 Malibu with a 350 trick flow heads roller rockers and Demon Carb. with HEI distributor, and on the way home it started giving me some trouble. Around town it was ok but seemed to break up a little @ 40 mph but over all ok at 2500 rpm or less , but when I got on the highway and was doing 3500 rpms for 20 miles or so it would break up then stop running , let it sit for 10 min and it would start right up and go good for another 20-25 miles and do the same thing. I think its the ignition moudle, but not sure?

I just want to drop in a new Distrubitor, but wanted to get some of your guys thoughs first?
Does it sound like this would fix my problem and if so what is the best distrubitor I can get for my money, looking to spend $200.00
