Default 1998 LS1 misfire

Ok so I just bough a 1998 Formula Ls1 with a misfire to the engine. It has race Pacesetter hearders on it andonly misfires every so often. There is no EGR valve and there is a washer over the spot it was at. Another thing is after the SLP hood there is no screen in front of the MAF sensor. Does it just need to be tuned?

Any ideas?

Thanks in advanced

does it sound like it has a large cam in it? I had a fuse blow (which ended up being a shorted injector circuit wire on the drivers side injectors) But you could start there, plugs, plugwires, ect.
