I had my '65 1500 out at the track Saturday.  She ran good, no leaks, no 
overheats (it was 105F), no crashes.  It's a high RPM race motor with Hitachi 
carbs.  From 5500-7000 RPM, it sputters at WOT only. It clears up immediately 
when I let off the throttle just a touch.  When it starts to sputter, it will 
no longer accelerate, when I let off a little, it accelerates 200-300 RPM 
instantly.  I run a MSD 7000 RPM rev-limiter, it doesn't appear to be 
malfunctioning.  Plugs, points, timing all seem correct.  108 octane 
race-gas.  Ideas?
