Sounds like a ignition or fuel problem. It sounds like its cutting out. Maybe time for a tuneup.

I would bet a paycheck it's your plug wires.

...... or the addition of the extra power took out 3rd gear. I'd start with the plug wires though. If it started after the header install something must be toasted or not reinstalled properly. Go back and check all your wires and harness.
