Default 1995 z28 help please

hi i have a 95z28, i was driving the other day and when i put it in 2nd (its an auto) it backfired and jerked real hard twice then maybe a 1/4 mile down the road it backfired again and died and wont start back up. i think it could be the distributor but im not sure could anyone give me any ideas as to what the problem could be?
