Chad, Sounds like you done took care of my "usual suspects" and its NOT a low voltage or poor starter or cable type problem so were kinda left with Ignition or Carburetion. If you remove a plug n have it wired with its side grounded n crank her over are you seeing a good visible blue spark???????? Of course it takes more energy to arc current across the gap under compression but the test I mentioined is a start at least.

Ive seen poor connections or bad ignition switches that drop voltage causing a weak spark, you might try to "hot wire" the coil with a wire direct from the battery to the coils input (NOT to distributor) terminal n see if the spark improves??? If so get a voltmeter n measure the voltage on the batery and then on the coil with ignition turned on and it shouold be close to full battery voltage if the switch n wires n connections are all good.

Id still rub a dollar bill or shop cloth between the points to non abrasively clean off any gray oxide coating. Another cause of a weak spark, EXPECIALLY when shes warned up, is a weak condensor TRY A NEW ONE. Faulty Coils can grow weak when warm also but thats hard to diagnose, got a substitute coil you may wanan try???
