Well guys the moral of the story is don't buy cheap plug wires!!!

It finally warmed up enough to throw the old ones back in, and guess what? The miss is gone! I had them in for about 2.5 months, and the miss got progressively worse. It wasn't there for the first little while, and believe me they all were connected just fine.

Don't cheap out!!!!!!!
