cracked cap? bad rotor? bad/leaky wires? screwed up firing order (it happens more than you'd think, I got an awesome deal on my '68 because the kid said there was something wrong with the cam, and it was just that #5 & #7 were mixed up)? worn points? points out of adjustment? dwell off? #5 and #7 wire run together (like tied in the same bundle running from the cap to the plugs)? hmm.... that's all I can think of real quick.
