Possibly, when you're driving the engine is under load, when you're out of gear it's not. Mine hesitates from about 1700-2000 RPMs then take off like a bullet. Yes mine needs to be tuned too, sometimes I miss carburetors.

Sounds like either it needs to be tuned or possibly your front O2s may be acting up or you might even have an ignition issue. When did it start doing it, was it right after a cam install or.......

Yeah get it tuned, while they are tuning it they can do some logging to see if the O2s are slow or if there are any other issues. My money is on the tune though, probably bogging down from being too rich.

High load and low rpm is TEXTBOOK ignition issues.

Change plugs and wires and it'll be fine.

If you were planning on getting it tuned anyway then I would at least take it to them so they can do some logging on it first. They should be able to see if it's just the tune or if there are any other issues, if it's not just the tune fix it and bring it back to be tuned if necessary. I wouldn't just start throwing parts at it without knowing exactly whats going on, but thats just my two cents.
