Default 99' Z-28 hesitation?

I have been having hesitation problems with my car since I bought it 2 years ago. I was told I had an intake manifold gasket leak so I replaced that. Also new plugs and wires. Does any one have any suggestions? My power cuts in and out, very strange. Maybe injectors?

Some datalogs are a place to start...
A list of what you know to be done to the car is also pretty much necessary B4 suggestions are offered..

Datalogging = hooking up a tool to the ECM and logging parameters while you drive the car, so you can see what was happening with the engine/sensors when your problem happens.

Do you have any other problems like surging at idle or sporatic idle RPM or anything else? When I had a vacuum leak in my Camaro it was at the PCV valve. The hose split open.
