1. A significant air /vacuum leak some where that is affecting the combustion of the fuel-air mixture.
2. Ignition problem.

I'm re-reading your posts and noted the above.

The distributor was off 180 degrees at one point after I pulled it out to test the ignitor. It was fairly easy to determine - huge backfire.
