What have you done to it? Is this the initial install or what did you do to change anything?
Are you sure you are not 180 degrees out? To check just swap your plug wires around (#1 wire on the opposite side of the dizzy and follow the firing order back around)
Don't do like I did and get your cylinder numbers screwed up. 1357 on drivers side front to back, 2468 pass side front to back.
