Rough Idle 700

Have you checked for any wear/wobble in the distributor shaft? Are the plug wires the "Bougicord" type with the hole in the distributor end? If they have the crimped on connector then they're not making contact with the pin at the bottom of the distributor cap holes. This creates another gap and will weaken the spark and can cause missfires.
