Default Car wont start when its hot.

Ok guys I have a problem and I dont know exactly what is causeing it. I installed a Holly Systemax II intake on my 88 stang with SD. Well it wasnt responding well with the Sd setup(running way to rich). So I switched over to Mass Air. Now she runs great, fires right up and runs smooths like she is sopose to. The problem ocurrs while the car is running at idle(Runs and idles for 10 or 15 minutes) and then just dies, I try to start it back up but it wont start, just turns over. Now after a few hours or when the motor is completly cooled down she will fire right up and idle for 10 minutes or so I die, and again wont start back up. The Temp gage reads normal so I dont believe overheating is a problem. What am I missing?

Checked for spark and fuel when this is occuring? High likelihood it's the ign module if it's losing spark.
