I'd bet you have an ignition wire(s) going bad.
My car acted exactly like this when the wires were going bad...fine cold and as soon as hot there was a hideous miss.
A new set of MSD wires solved the problem....might as well change the plugs and coil while you are at it.

the stock/oem wires have a habit of burning up and going bad, i've put on 3 sets in just over 1 year! They're in a horrible location, surrounded by hot @$$ exhaust and emissions piping, running right underneath a serpantine belt, theres a toooooon of things that can go wrong with them, id still give them a check at night, see if you spot any fire works.

I put on new AC Delco wires, and now that you mention it this miss is exactly like the one that I had before. So it seems as though I could have gotten a s**tty set of wires right out of the box!
