You've got oil! May be sipping by the valves or up past the rings. Do you belch any blue smoke? What is the top end now? Stock?

As for your question, the spark plugs alone do not answer. How does the oil look? Does it burn any? You have sufficient compression.

It sounds like you are looking for an excuse to get a new one so pull the motor sell it on craigslist for $500 and put the money towards a new one.
