460 struggle

Truck idles fine. Runs pretty good until you put it down. It has more power at 1/2 throttle other than full. Starts to shake like if the tire was skipping or the engine has a rev limiter above 3,500rpms, because it won't even accelerate until it swiches gears and goes to a lower rpm.. I was thinking fuel filter maybe. No check engine light.

My first thought was fuel filter too. Also, As stated above, I would rule out the ignition.
