Same thing i went threw, Recheck your plug wires especially 2nd one on passenger side. It kept getting burnt on the header. well if you have headers

if it's running bad after warming up I'd look at ignition components prone to heatsoak (ICM, coil, etc) or a sensor that is only used in closed loop (O2's, etc.)

coil and icm are new and spaced from the head with 2 washers each side
but the 02 are originals
