Patrickt - I will re-install the old plugs just to eliminate that possibility today.

Rick - The bowls have fuel, and there must be spark as per the backfire/flame.

Jim - The distributor cap and contacts look good. I will try to get an extra pair of hands to bump the engine to check the timing, and will pay attention to what happens when I release the ignition key.

Bryan - Is there a way to test the coil to see if it is the problem?

Thanks for all the input and suggestions guys. I plan on working on it some more this afternoon, and will check the wires and firing order again.

Ron
