Misfire....help?!?!

i just changed my plugs and wires and my car is misfiring BAD.....its the #8 cylinder and i felt the wire snap in fine and everything, gapped the plugs to .060 and i'm using NGK TR55 plugs. Also the scanner picked up a couple missfires on #7 and #2 but only one or two missfires on each of them. what do yall think?

yeah Im having the same problem... I figured it was one of the plugs but I checked 6 of the 8 and they look fine, the last 2 are too much of a pain to try and get to.

unplug the #8 coil and see if the missfire stays the same, if so thats the problem cylinder. its likely ignition related since it was recently worked on.
