Suddenly sluggish

Thursday went to work car felt and drove great- thought it was the warm weather yet cool crisp air-

On way home though- Horrible, it felt so nasty and sluggish....

So I figured- the time is here....

I a week ago had to replace the Water Pump- due to the gasket leaking suddenly too- I changed new belt as well.

Today _ I did the Plugs, NGK's and MSD wires (not really what i wanted but wanted to get them to day) so I took extra time and pulled plugs- didnt look that bad, actually about normal wear.

Wires wernt to good though- heat from headers and the insides (connect to spark plug) were kinda burt out.

So I took even more time putting together the MSD's.

Air filter- not clean but not dirty- kind of out of money so will get maybe next week.

Hooked all up- and Ummmmmm WTF...

Kind of expected a better responce- its deff better the the condition of the ride home, but not really up to par-

Feels alittle sluggish actually. I am writing because the biggest differance is the exhaust sound...it is popping- ricer style on the decell...didnt do that before- unless i reall got into at high speeds or put in neutral at higher speeds....

Why is it doing that...I thought the pop was "To Rich"....
Why would i be Too Rich after new plugs and wires...
Dont think i messed the wires up, pretty ez nice good crimps? I did use lil WD40 to lub wires for boot- could that be it?
Can timing be off after replacing them?

IDK, just odd.

anythought be nice.
