I had the same problem with a stock 340 shifting at 6500.The mechanical fuel pump could not keep up with fuel demand.Put a holley blue pump and never nosed over again but then had to check plugs to jet up.plug gap I ran .045
I have ran NGK plugs for a while R5671A-7 or 8 just have to check heat range.
