Also, anyone know any other possible issue with idle not being as smooth as it should be? I replaced plugs already and have replaced the valve cover gasket. Don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I was watching my spark advance and it was jumping from -3 to 2 and wasn't sure if that was normal or not..Thanks for the help guys!

Any oil leaks, like a valve cover gasket(VCG) will also cause a vacuum leak. Vacuum leaks will cause a rough idle. Maybe your VCG is still leaking. ?
It could also be the winter blends of fuel in your area. Maybe change fuel brands. ?
Sounds like the spark plugs were your issue.
