Ok, the plug wires are routed correctly and their brand new. I did the msd spark test and she's sparking, besides, the timing light picked up cylinder #1. I wildly rotated the dist around at least 30 degrees and it sputters a bit cleaner when rotated clockwise but still feels like its running on 6 cylinders.

Check this out: The drivers side valve cover, head and header are super hot after 20-30 seconds and the passenger side vlave cover and header are cool enough to touch after 2-3 minutes of experimenting. The wires dont touch anything on the way over and the wires are snug on the cap. This is not normal, is it?
