I have seen this exact symptom caused by a broken ground wire in the diz. The spot-weld had broken and the wire was just lying on the baseplate; it ran fine at lower rpms, but started a nasty misfire

90% of all carb problems are electrical. So, take Lew's advice and check the condensor as that's the most likely culprit. While you at it, check the points, cap, rotor, and coil. Blake /// or try ht
