Does it miss at idle or only when it is under a load (when you are trying to accelerate)?

I'd try pulling the msd box off it.

I had an injector go bad on my '94 causing an extremely similar issue. Replaced them and everything was fine. But you may also want to look at the pickup coil in the distributor as a culprit as well. Check the distributor and rotor button contacts for corrosion buildup.

Yup,just plug the coil back into the factory ignition harness and see if thats it. Doesnt take but 5 minutes to do and its another check on the list of things to look at.

Will the car rev fine in neutral?

If it revs fine in neutral it sound like an ignition issue to me.

I would also replace the distributor cap and the rotor if they have not been done recently. They are fairly cheap and it is easy to do.

Wouldn't hurt to check fuel pressure.

Ignition module on the distributor and check the Mass Air sensor harness plug.

May be a little late but check smog pump lines if it still has them
