I used anti-sieze on my plugs a few years ago and began to have problems under heavy acceleration with the engine "coughing" then resuming acceleration. Turns out the anti-sieze was allowing some blowby. After cleaning the plugs and threads, I've yet to have the problem again. I may have been a bit over zealous with the stuff, but it may work fine for you.
