I had a friend with a 94 Vette chase an issue for MONTHS that turned out to be a junk plug...but he didn't have headers on it, and they weren't AC Delco plugs by then either. Other than his car though...the ONLY time I've ever seen plug issues is like you said...if you bump one working on the exhaust manifolds/headers.

For what it's worth, at 30K my plugs all look great...I had them out sunday while I put my longtubes in...they looked perfectly fine, so I stuck them right back in the heads.
