Stuttering while accelerating 700 1991

So I just did a preliminary look at the distributor cap , wires , ignition coil and igniter assembly. I did not see anything out of the ordinary with the cap and electrode areas , maybe a slight pitting of the rotor brush which I cleaned up. The plug wires are bougicords silicone E type and are fairly new. I had a spare ign assembly that I installed just because but that did not change anything at all. One thing I noticed with the stuttering and hesitation is that it occurs at approximately 1500 rpms and once past this the vehicle will accelerate smoothly to a point but then seems to bog down a bit at the higher rpms , say about 4000 or so. If in drive at 1500 rpms and i select a lower gear which makes the rpms higher the stuttering/hesitation goes away.
