Engine "Sputtering"....

Soo...I just recently started having this problem that im hoping somebody can help me out with...This past weekend I took '69 C/10 out for a drive and opened it up for the hell of it on the highway...I hit about 80-85 mph and the engine started "sputtering"...It was almost like a speed governor kicked in on it...I took it out again today to drive it to work since its nice outside and once I got on the highway it started doing the same thing again...but this time it started "sputtering" at only 65-70 mph and kept doing it till I reduced my speed to about 50 mph...and I accelerated and it did it again!

The truck starts fine, idles good, and accelerates great up to highway speeds, then this issue comes about once I get above 65 mph. As far as I know, quadrajets and TH350's dont have speed governors, so what could cause this problem? And why would it happen at 85 mph, then again at 65 mph a different day? Any ideas....cause I got none lol
