Search engines shun any artificial means of gaining higher rankings on search engines. Your same article could be published on 3-5 websites, but 170 is way too much.

If you can manage to submit even 20 unique articles ( after making slight changes to the content) to 20 high ranking article websites, it will be far much helpful to your website's rankings.

I don't think that submitting same article to 170 or 500 article directories can create any penalty because article directories are developed for the same purpose. Please make it clear why this type of submission can create any penalty? Most of people who are doing article submission are doing the same for more than last five years and I never heard about this problem...
