Default Misfire in 93 z28

So im having what i think is a misfire in my lt1. So far i have replaced fuel filter, plugs, wires, thermostat, and waterpump. My waterpump went bad not to long ago so im guessing my optispark is probably going bad. MY symptoms of the misfire is under a heavy load at low rpm the car will basically fall on its face. If anyone has any suggestions of what the problem is please let me know.
