Do you have a point type distributor or for that matter another distributor (maybe a friends?) that you can use temporarily? You may justify your decision or find it is the MSD box itself. BTW points are triggered by the white wire. I chased a similar problem and ultimately realized the distributor was out of phase (trigger wires reversed). The motor would not run past about 3800 RPM without missing and generally running very poorly. I changed coils, overhauled the carb, plugs all to no avail. Not until I stuck a point type distributor in did I realize my error.
