Poping and missing

OK i have a 1993 camaro z-28

full bolt ons with a hot cam .....
has msd wires and tr6 plugs ...msd blaster coil stock opti

Well i was driving my car today and my low oil light came on so i put some oil in it.....i drove about 10 min to the store and when i got back out i started it and pulled out the lot and it was missing really bad ..and when i gave it the slightest amount of gas it will just pop pop pop out the exhaust......

any one have any ideas on what is is .....im guessing the oil has nothing to do with it i just threw that out the but .... im guessing opti or plugs or wires.....

Obviously try and pinpoint the problem before you spend that kinda money. Could just be burnt wires, ya never know.

Yah it sounds like an opti but trouble shoot it first lots of htings will cause popping and missing. no point guessing and spending the money to find out it somehting else.
