the engine cuts out intermittently every few seconds for a split second, especially at high rpm's. i tested the fuel pump and it sends a good stream to the carb. do i have an electrical problem? it appeared suddenly, not over time

Possibly a weak ignition coil..I would replace it along with new points and condenser as I'm assuming you don't have electronic ignition.... ;)
