You don't explain how you did your initial timing. But, as Todd and Ed mention, I would guess your timing is off. I spent 14 years as a vocational automotive instructor, and helped lots of neighbors and friends with their engine rebuilds, and answered 911 calls for people whose engines were doing what you describe. In most cases the initial timing was wrong, which usually meant the distributor was intalled 180 degrees out.

No, don't just rotate the shaft 180 and try again. Start from scratch and time it.
