If there's a reasonably wide band of operation where it does NOT misfire, as a first-pass I'd guess ignition is in the ballpark. Timing check etc probably a good idea.

Sounds like carb. Might be two different problems, even.

WHen you put you foot in it: is accell pump working? Does it
squirt when you rotate from half to full throttle?

Clogs or bad float level could cause starvation at sustained
speeds, or if it's a 4-bbl, timing of back barrels, or other
problem with the other barrells.

With my Weber, I can feel the secondary open with my foot; it's
therefore easy to tell when it opens.
