Default 1995 Formula Help!

Whats up i have a 1995 auto formula (lt1). Couple days ago when i took her out for a spin, car made strange noises. Whenever i get to about 4500 RPM's, the car will start making a lot of popping noises (a couple per second) and then will stop after it shifts. Whenever it looses a little bit of power. Any suggestions??

Are there any other problems that you are experiencing associated with the popping noises?

sounds like you've got a common high rpm miss. Check all plugs and wires, coil. etc.

What type of gas are you running? You might be pinging from to low of an octane rating, or there is possible detonation.
