It could be that the timing is too far advanced and when it climbs 
above a certain point the engine doesn't like it.  You could try 
retarding it a bit.  You could also have a bad wire from the points 
to the condenser wire inside the dist.  A little change in the vac 
adv can flex that wire and cause a loss of the connection.  You can 
check this by sucking on a hose connected to the vac adv while the 
engine is idling.  It should speed up, but smoothly.

Of course there are many other possibilities.
