could be plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil. it could also be a bad injector that is dumping fuel. could also be timing. what timing are you running?

Pull codes. Check that your dizzy doesnt spin by hand (indicating that the hold down came loose).

You can check the plug wires at night for bleeding.

Good luck.
