Yea they are new plugs gapped down to .35 I think it was. I had a shop time it and tune the carb. That's when he told me about a header leak which I fixed with some nice earl gaskets. They actually did the plugs when they timed it, I haven't pulled one since though. He cited the header leak as the issue actually, that's fixed though.

Could a bad voltage regulator in the alternator cause it for some reason? Maybe improper voltage to the distributor? I know it needs done as its not putting out what it should
