Open the engine lid and watch it run in the dark so you can if there is arcing. I've had this happen with my braided wires if they crossed routes in certain ways. Typically near the distributor cap since that's where the most overlap occurs. Make sure the wires are grounded properly too. You can also hear arcing if you listen carefully and you don't have a loud motor/exhaust; sounds like a ticking sound.
