I think I found the problem - at least part of it. The motor runs out of fuel under acceleration with less than a 1/3 tank full. As far as I can tell the pick up point is near the front of the tank. After a fill up the car pulled well to red line at least in 1st and second - need some freeway time to try third. I did the math and the air cleaner is too small - but removing it didn't make a difference - filling the tank did. I still plan on checking the timing - and installing a fuel pressure gage. Can't hurt to become more familiar with the motor. Thanks again for the helpful suggestions.
Regards,
Robin
