Jerky 460

Have a '75 E350 Class C motorhome w/rebuilt 460 (15,000 miles)
Have intermittent surging/jerking(almost like wind turbulence) most noticeable at 50MPH + but also at slower speeds. Especially evident on uphill grades or when under high load. Replaced plugs/rotor/cap/plug wires/ignition module. Didn't help. Has original carb (4 barrel) Am thinking of a carb rebuild or replace as next step. Any agreement here or any other ideas?

Fuel filter is new. Haven't tried the fuel pump but will give it a switch.
thanks
