mine did the exact same thing. only between 3-4 grand at cruising throttle. . bought new fuel filter and new distrubutor cap and rotor and that solved the problem for me

good luck

its kinda tuned. getting it tuned on Thursday. I think I will replace the fuel filter before then, just to prevent any future problems/ eliminate possibilitys.
