I have a hard time believing it's the distributer. Before putting in the new bearing's at actually ran great. it just had no oil pressure and the rear seal leaked like a seive. The other problem is that the distributer is rusted in place and wont move for hell or high water.

yeah, it probebly did run good before, but what I'm trying to say is, if the distributor was timed for the slack in the timing gears and chain, and now with new timing componets, the distributor timing is going to be way off.

most likly an ignition problem... with engine running, i always pull a plug wire to see the spark..it should jump 3/4 inch or better..do all plug wires... be careful them wires do bite..i use plastic pliers for that... also check the plugs and the gap...should be .035....
