Default 01 trans am random misfire code

first off hey to everyone i have an 01 trans am it has a lingenfelter cam and trick flow heads and a whole list of bolts on after the dyno last year it started to throw a p0300 when i hooked the gm tech 2 to it, it showed a random miss fire at idle on all cylinders but under load was fine i tried every single diagnostic process possible replaced o2 sensor new plugs and wires while head where done not even 100miles ago new fuel rail/injectors when heads where done has all new gasket on top end...im starting to think is was the tune( i've also been thinking it was the true duels straight pipe i have on it but i ran that for 2years before dyno with no problems) but was wondering if anyone had any other ideas on what it could be....also thank you to any help/responses in advance

I had the same problem a while back. It was my Taylor spark plug wires. The clip on the inside boot broke(plug side) and this was on a few. The plug wires were also fairly new and had never been removed until my car started throwing codes. Hope this helps and good luck finding your problem.
