Do you have an autozone? If so use their scanner and see what the exact problem is, other than that, I would seek professional help

there are 2 many things to check to just diagnose it with such little information..,
what cylinders are misfiring? have you checked the valve adjustment? the cam timing? was there oil in the spark plug holes? any cracks or arcs in the dizzy cap

I think the dizzy was fine, but I do have cams on the car and im not sure about the valve adjustments i didnt touch the valves when i did the cams. there was alittle oil down in the spark plug holes but its gone. it doesnt feel like its misfiring when i drive it, and when i take it to autozone it says cylinder 1-4 misfire and then random multiple misfire. The cams should be set at 0 degrees i havent yet had them tuned so i wouldn't suppose that the cams would be the problem but im no expert. I was told from a friend that valves could throw misfire codes as well so i'll check them later this week but if you know of anything else to check lemme know thanks
