Given the rather unique twin ignition system used in 33 and 34 combined with the fact that you changed plugs would lead to to think either two plug wires are crossed, or half the ignition system had dropped out. First thing I'd do is check the wires and numbers (they are numbered on the cap under the cover) and then check the two coil high tension leads. With the cap off, you might also give a check to both sets of points just to insure they are closing and opening.

Seems less likely that it's the carburetor, but what carburetor did you install? Any excessive soot or smoke at the tailpipe?
