Default Miss on my 1993 firebird

I just got a miss from a dead stop when flooring the car. The car has 117.000 miles. The car h.as a aftermarket optispark, but does it sound like it could be going bad.

When's last time you put plugs and wires on it? What are the plugs gapped at?

It was a GM, and so far no check engine lights and I am going to scan it in the morning. The miss got a lot worse tonite, under full throttle it misses real bad then clears up.

I just sprayed the wires down and it looked like there was no arc. So I guess the wires are out of the question huh.
