Its the SAME points, coil and condensor and rotor tip that fires BOTH cylinders so you might try a new cap and rotor or at least do a critical visual to look for moisture, cracks or carbon traces etc. Look carefully at the rotor and where it fits down on the shaft for carbon or other indications of shorts.
Check the points gap on BOTH high cams and insure theres no distributor shaft wobble
Id run it in the pitch dark to look for tell tell arcing like plug wires etc
Got another set of wires you might try, maybe its a plug wire problem (arcing may show up easier in the dark).
On the vacuum leak the other gents mentioned with her idling spray carb cleaner or WD 40 etc all around the manifold base and carb to manifold junction and around the carb to see if it makes it smooth out and/or speed up, if so you found a vacuum leak leaning her out
