Default Ballast Resistor ?

Hello,
My 1971 351W has developed a miss (Duraspark w/points & Condenser).... I changed plugs,(old ones looked good though) NEW wires and added new Gas with a fuel additive >>> no change.

What are the symptoms of a Ballast Resistor going or gone bad?? Think this could be the problem??

The miss just started one day,...
seems to smooth out once you reach about 4500 rpms, and idle is not bad, but in the midrange (2000- 4000), the motor stumbles pretty bad,.. Any ideas???
BTW: I am running a Road Demon 625 Carb. Carb & Timing seem correct.
thanks
RZ
