Default bogging, i think

ok, this happened about a week ago...i brought the car (88 coupe 4+3 Z-52) down to school, two hours @ about 80mph (keeping up with traffic ). anyway when i was driving around it was fine. parked it and it restarted fine about half an hour later. but about a block away, i hit the gas with the clutch in and it bogged really bad, i let off the gas it went to a low (500 rpm) idle, so i was on the gas to get it up, bogges, and so on for about ten seconds...after that it was fine...what could this be, it's the first time this happened and i don't like it. thanks in advance for your help!

Mike

Still sounds like fuel problem.
When was the last time you changed your fuel filter?
Check your fuel pressure regulator?
