Default TR55 and TR6 missfire!

I swaped to MSD 8.5 wires and TR6 plugs on my bolt-on 02 Z28. The TR6 plugs where missfireing from idle to 1500rpms with the car out of gear. I would a multi cylinder missfire code P300. Now i swaped 2 sum TR55s and still get a little missfire at idle but goes away at 1K rpms. Is this a know problem with these plugs? If so what plugs are sum of u runing that dont cause this 2 happen?
