You shoulda seen my last low buck Ford stroker motor, before I got out of cars.

I believe it's just the carbs. I bought a set of those from Wired George and he warned me that they do exactly that, stumble at WOT. I live with it because once it's done stumbling, I'M GONE!!!
Try some different carbs if you have them. May be easier than pulling it all apart again.
Good luck!

I would never buy a set of carbs if from someone that told me they would not work properly. After much tinkering I got it tuned out. A stumble is unacceptable to me. If that's the case while you are stumbling someone with well tuned STOCK carbs just ate your lunch!
