Running out of gas

My sons 71 has started to act like its running out of gas. It seems to run good at idle or low speed. At about 50-60 mph it seems to act like its out of gas. Thought it might be picking up stuff from the bottom of the tank so I pulled the sending unit and there was no sock on the end of the pickup. I installed a new one and the problem didnt go away. The gas tank has probably never been out of the truck so I am not sure how much garbage is at the bottom. It is a 350 with a turbo 350. Stock rebuilt quadrajet and a fairly new fuel pump. Also a clean stock fuel filter in the carb. Looking for suggestions on thing to check.
