The water temp should be more like 210 in that thing. You should have a 195 thermostat in there. Your converters and O2 sensors probably went bad in the first place because the engine is running cold and you're in a perpetually rich condition.

If the timing is adjustable, retard it a little bit and the EGT will go up.
