Factory Spark Plug Spec changed to .040 when they went from factory installed platinum to replacement iridium.

If you have NGK iridium they should be .040

.035 is probably about right on that plug.

What about plug wires? ever changed them???

Are you sure there seated all the way on both the coil and the plug???

Msd wires and yeah I'm pretty positive it idles fine with no arcing or rough idle spots and drives fine and pulls smooth under regular driving

have you checked the plugs since this started happening? sounds like they may be your issue.

you mentioned nitrous... that could have something to do with it too

I had a similar issue the first cam swap I did, the plugs were fouled/busted tips... changed to some TR55s and cleared it right up.

Could I have a bad coil or clogged injector? And it don't make sense how it won't miss or anything driving till I hit 4k. And in park it will rev up to whatever and be smooth so it's only when the engine has a load on it
