Default my car is pissing me off help please

I was driving last night on the street and my car shut off by itself. I tried to start it again and it doesnt' start no more. I checked to see if my fuel cut off switch fucked up and it wasn't that. so I towed it to a shop and the guy is saying that there is no spark and it is probably the engine computer which is by the fire ball. and I have to replace that. I never knew there is an engine computer other than ECU anyways. anyways he said I need to replace it.
does anyone know what this engine computer is? and does it matter if it is a gsr or an LS?
Thanks in advance guys

They're located in the distributor assy. As far as prices goes, call a dealership. I'm really not sure.

Dealers can eat a dick and so can CKS/Autozone. They want $250 bucks for a complete dizzy! $110 for the ignitor, I didnt dare ask about the coil.
