With what you have described, it sounds like a ground issue.
Is the engine grounded to the frame, and the battery grounded to the frame. Is the ground sufficient for the load? Is the polarity correct to the crank trigger for the MSD?
As Joe described, or I am reading into where he is headed. Disconnect everything that takes or makes power, start the car and check and see if the problem goes away. Then add One device at a time.

The polarity is correct....even if it wasn't , from what I understand that would alter the timing but it would still show as "steady state".
Grounds , well everything is well grounded but I'll look at all this suggested stuff today.
