Id guess you have a bad vacuum leak somewhere if the timing is right.
Are you sure the timing mark is correct?

You timing is retarded.....Give it some more initial advance and that will go away

Have you tried doing a compression test on a couple cylinders?
Verified the timing mark on the damper is correct?

If it is ALL the tubes glowing it is TIMING period. You might wanna check and make ABSOLUTELY sure its not 180 degrees out as well. TDC on COMPRESSION stroke. Also that the distributor cap is truly on number one at TDC. If its ALL the headers its timing.

You might as well start from the bottom up, pull the front cover check the crank gear and timing chain alignment there might be an offset key installed the wrong way if they still make them or a multiple key way sprocket installed wrong, find TDC and reset your distributor and double check the lock out and rotor phase.
