Default Engine quit

Here's a good one for you guys. While warming the car up last night to make sure the puller fan would work thermostatically the engine shut down as if the ignition was turned off. Trouble shooting revealed gas to carb, spark to plugs, distributor shaft was OK, and timing was dead on. Seems the only thing left to check or replace is the Pertronix ignition. Any thoughts? I have less than 45 minutes run time on the engine since install.
Thanks, John
