Don't know if you ruled this out (didn't read through all the posts) but is good info: I had a break-up of ignition in my FE starting at about 4000 rpm. Visual inspection of cap, rotor, magnetic trigger showed nothing wrong. I ordered new parts & when taking out the magnetic trigger discovered that the magnets were actually 2 magnets, one in front of the other. The magnet you could not see was cracked in half. all there but cracked so when you removed it, you had 2 separate pieces. I replaced the magnetic trigger & no more high rpm breakup.
