Default Indirect Vette motor question

OK dont shoot me because every penny I can save fixing the everyday driver the money goes toward one of the vettes!!!Problem is Chevy Z34 motor...6 cyl w DOHC misses on start up...no check engine light...after 5 minutes runs great and does so for rest of the day...dead miss until it warms up on one cyl until you give it some gas and at 2,000 or so RPM the cyl kicks in.....NEW Plugs....New wires...no help.
O2 sensor????
injector???
other????
any help will save me money and vette will like its new cam!
Dave the old one (heck I know how to work on them if it doesnt have a puter)

You got me. Have you tried the basics, like injector cleaner? Or maybe it's electronic. Do you have one of those testers that you plug in, and it flashes the codes?
