Check your engine grounds. I had an issue like this once with a silverado, found a cluster of ground wires that weren't making contact.

One bad spark plug WIRE can cause an engine to miss.

Old Gasoline will cause an engine to Ping or Knock under hard acceleration.

Vacuum Leak causes same symptoms.

Replaced Air Filter?


When the spark plugs or the Cap was replaced, could two wires gotten crossed up?


Note:
I know for a fact that if two spark plug wires get crossed and the 302ci engine is run hard for only a short time, a piston will either crack or a hole will burn through it, cause I did this 35 years ago and had to replace my 1970 Torino GT 302 4V engine.
