Default V8 lack of power

Having trouble with my 38 1/2 ton pick up.
24 stud flathead 8
Truck seems ( I don't know what is good for these engines) to run OK when cold & as it warms up gets sluggish to the point of almost no power.
I have a rebuilt distributor, timed with a Tasco timing device, new coil & new out of the box stromberg 97 carb.
Anyone have any insight as to what the issue might be & how to go about fixing it.
Thanks in advance
