Two other things came to mind:
1. check the obvious battery connections. If you have a loose positive it will cause your ignition system to default.

2. Do you have a MSD 6AL ignition? If it's located in the engine bay area and overheats it will cause the same problem. Second, check the hot wire to your ignition. I experienced a similar issue with my MSD 6AL and thought I had fried the system until I discovered a loose positive battery contact which in effect was delivering low power to the system causing it to flicker into the default mode.
