THe drop off of power at 45 mph is a clue. Does i make a kind of a pup-pup-pup-pup sound just before it dies??? Try a KNOWN good coil and condenser first that's the easiest. OR REMOVE gas cap if vent is plugged.

If those fail to cure the problem then very likely it mite be a needle and seat problem especialy if needle is "rubber" tipped and distorted due to ethanol or a bad pump.
