For sure, validate your fuel delivery first.

I also recommend cleaning the ceramic filter element. They can look good, but the pores can get clogged. Pull it out, and blow it out with compressed air.

Another issue could be carb float level. Perhaps it's leading to starvation during high demand.

If the carb hasn't been serviced, it may be something to look at.

Also, that wire in the distro should not be bare like that.
