Unhappy car stumbles at steady acceleration

hey guys and gals. i just put slp headers on my 93 z28. i also installed plugs and wires. and a new dipstick(pain in the u know wht) car was running great for 2 days then i took a friend for a ride and i slow down and push in the clutch and i hear a horrible noise. it sounded like a bad bearing. so i think its the throw out bearing. but an hour later i hop in my car to hit up sears and under normal acceleration car pulsates but it dont feel like a misfire more like drivetrain problems. im gunna check my wires and plug connections tomarrow. by the way other mods are nos dry system,4;10 gear,digital 6,intake, only things tht could coincide. oh yah i havent sprayed on the new plugs so cant be burnt out. stock clutch

Nice that you posted back about the solution. Maybe it would be a good time to change the fuel filter.
