Post Fouled plugs

I installed new plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. The plugs that came out were fine, but what the heck. Anyway, now the plugs are mis-firing like crazy and are gas soaked. Any suggestions?

Fouled plugs

Given that the secondary ignition was the only thing you messed with, I'd check to make sure that the plug wires were replaced in the proper order. If you had a backfire, you might have blown the power valve in the carb, but that is also just a maybe.
