That compression sounds high. is it an 18rg or a gu? the 18rg from the manual should only be up to around 158 psi. And the GU should be lower.
If it is firing on all cylinders but number 1 at idle and then gets worst while reving, try disconnect the vacuum advance and see if that does anything. I once took out my dizzy and put it back in one cog too advanced. At idle the timing was good(set with light) but as soon as you advanced it coughed and farted like crazy.
When I had a look at the dizzy position I found out because of the wrong insertion, when timing was being advanced it was only giving a weak spark to the correct cylinder and another weak one to the plug next to it. When it advanced at full throttle it wasn't sparking on the plug it was supposed to at all.
One more suggestion. are the leads good?? maybe the number 1 cylinder lead it not too good.
