if you have changed all plugs, wires, and complete dizzy, i would lean towards a headgasket or compression issue

Have you checked the ignition timing with a timing gun? Are you sure the mechanical (cam & crank) timing isn't off by one tooth?

This and check your injectors and fuel rail.

Good compression varies on a couple different factors, dont just try stuff, figure it out then fix it. You can make the problem worse just changing things for no reason. i would just sell it if you dont have time for it but dont make it worse...
