Default Engine Miss!

When using about half throttle through the gears when I get to about

3000 RPM in 3rd gear the engine flattens out then continues to pull normal.

It doesn't do this all the time but does it frequently.

I can also feel a miss at cruise.

I've had the injecters checked out at fuel Injection and they were fine.

At full throttle runs it feels fine.

I haven't checked the plugs yet (Dread the thought).

Does it sound like plugs?

It's a 93 LT1 with An ATI blower.
Thanks!
Herb

I would check the plugs. Just do it the "old school" way of pulling each plug wire until you find the one that makes no difference in the running of the engine.
