Pete is right about the terminals. I go one step more and get Marine terminals. They have a post with a wing nut so you can put the newly installed ring connectors right on the post and tighten the nut down on them.

check your rotor and spark plug wire contacts for burn out and pitting. Distributor pick-up may also be failing.

Thanks everyone. PROBLEM I think solved, at least half of it. Car is noticeably running smoother. I had a bad battery and the connections on it were crappy. It also wiggled a little. :D
