Question Low rpm miss, just can't find it

I have a 95 squade Lt1, I have a low rpm miss, chug, stumble that when warn can be felt at steady speed on the highway. It was lots worse in wet weather, but I replaced the opti, wires, plugs, knock leads that were melted, fuel pump, rebuilt mass air flow sensor. It has 77k on it and idles smooth. I just can't find the cure. Any ideas? It is all stock. Could it be the coil or a gremilin from Ford living under my hood?

It very well can be the coil. They typically break down when they heat up. Concidering you eliminated many of you posibilities, I would change the coil and possilbly the module as well.

Try taking the vacuum line off of the EGR valve. A friend of mine had this problem yesterday and it cleared it right up.

i am having the exact same problem in my lt1, only im sure its the plug wires bc i have headers and they burnt through a few of them a little, at WOT it feels ok but skips at cruising speeds.
