The Ford Barn

Hi folks,
I need some help.
I bought this 1930 Model A Ford Tudor last September. I've been going through some things that need attention. I just finished rebuilding the steering box, did a tune up. New plugs, cap, rotor, ignition coil and condenser. The points looked good. I just finished rebuilding the Tillitson Carb. The car starts and idles good. While driving, if I accelerate, it begins to stumble and bog down. I've checked the timing and the points gap and they seem to be correct. Fuel flow to the carb is good. I checked the compression. They range between 50 and 60 PSI. I've installed a fuel filter between the gas tank and the carb.
THOUGHTS?

Thanks,
Bill
