Default 1984 XJ Carburetor Issue

Hey all, been doing some highway driving and it seems that (after I've tinkered with the carb) that my top speed in 4th is 60 on flat ground. I have a 5th gear, and I can floor it with no change in speed. Ditto on the 4th gear... maybe a mixture issue??? Any tips? Photos would be greatly appreciated!!! Its a stock carb for the 2.5L I4 Hurricane.

I am also wondering if a possible blown head gasket would be causing this?
