I`ll have to post some pictures of it throwin some sparks from the frame when I get them downloaded!! ~DREW~
Your cap and rotor could be your problem. I've seen a brand new cap and rotor installed and not too long, the cap went, causing misfiring.

Do you have a multimeter at home? With that, you can check all the cables and cap for continuity. Ohm meter will work to test for resistance of each circuit.

If you have a good spare spark plug cable that's long enough to reach all 8 plugs, you'll know which wire is bad.

360 Mopar!? C'mon, man! 350 Chevy small block! parts are cheap and plentiful! hehehe
