If the problem begin when you change your plug it's probably there you wanna start.

Check first if your spark plug cable are correctly plug and not mix up!

sluggish when you rev it? sluggish when you drive it?

did you put the spark plugs wires back correctly since you changed plugs?
check timing?

your plug wires seem correct.

I'd check to see if you're getting spark...can be done easily with a timing gun.....

do you have an aftermarket fpr for that walboro fuel pump?

check compression too.....

You have a TPS but i really think that the problem still your plug. So it dont mix up but recheck for the cable to be connect far enought on the spark plug. It very hard to properly snap the cable on the plug so maybe you just have a bad connection. It happen to me last time i change my plug.

I hope you understand me since i'm a french canadian

Anyway good luck but keep in mind that the problem start when you changed your plug so the problem is around. Check also if you have accidently unplug something near the plug and cable

Have you verified your timing and that the CAS is stabbed correctly?

That pump will cause the car to run rich unless you have upgraded the fuel pressure regulator.
