Have you checked the plugs?
Good AC-delco plugs?
Good hot blue spark to all plugs?

Fuel pressure up good?
How many miles on it?
K&N oil type air filter?
Has the MAF sensor been modifed or a tempt adjustment swith on air intake?
Does check engine light flash when it has a engine miss?
Any air leaks inthe air intake?

Make sure it has good fuel pressure.
Also clean MAF sensor with spray special cleaner.
The oil type filters can oil up and mess up the MAF readings.
If you can get it on a good engine capable scanner and check fuel trim and maf sensor readings and other sensor readings..
Also read out which cylinder is missing and how many times.

A lot of missfire on one cylinder can help pinpoint the problem.
