I got in my 94 viper and was taking it to the GOOD GUYS show, I noticed it was running a little rought. After driving I noticed it had a dead spot at about 1200 to 1500 and from then on it has a miss all the way up. The car is totally original with 12000 miles on it. Never did it before any ideas?

Is your battery OK? I have had similar things happen to mine when the battery was on its way out...

Battery is new,and the charging on gauge looks ok.

Could be lack of fuel, filter or pump.. if so don't bring the revs up too high, it'll lean out..

Gen I noted for ...headgaskets?

 

[got one]

Could be a few things...maybe any of the below?
1. wires or plugs
2. o2 sensors
3. loose injector wire(s)
4. fuel pump
5. bad gas/running the car with less than 1/4 in the tank
6. etc...

Add bad fuel filter to the list.

Thanks guys, I did pull all the plugs on the drivers side and they look to be burning a little lean ( chocky white ). As far as head gasket, I not getting fluids in the oil, and the antifreeze in the radiator is not going down. The exhaust is a little black at the tip, If you run your finger inside you get a little black residue.
