I don't know diddley about Revflows, but everything you describe so far
sounds like insufficient fuel flow.  Wide open throttle only, right?  Is it
gravity feed?  If so, I'd do a fuel flow test and make sure you have more
than enough (I think the rule is at least 50% more flow than WOT would
require).  That's a start though.  Is it better with a full tank than near
empty?  That would be another clue.  ?That's where I'd start...
