Default Misfire codes daily??

when I first got the car it threw a code, the guy got it cleared and it ran without a code for about a month. Friends with cammed LS1's said itll come on every month or so. Well I chaged out my TR55's for some TR6's in prepperation to spray. It ran better for a lil but then threw a code, cleared it, comes back. Now every 3-4 days i have to get the code cleared, it only appeares at idle. Could my plaugs be fouled allready due to not spraying on them, maybe wires, or a coil going out. Car was tuned after the cam install.

I only run premium gas 93octane. Plugs have 2,000 miles on them, and wires were on the car when I got it but less then 30,000 miles

u know it could, if its restricting enough it can cause the fuel mixture to be lean. Only thing is mine runs rich due to a nitrous tune. At idle u can smell the fuel
