I would suggest checking the plates in the distributor to see if they stick when hot. Or, a pertronix conversion still running a generator?

The fact that the issue seems to be intermittent suggests ignition. Most carburetors (even Rochester B's) have very little personality.

Just my guess.

The most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify.
