what would cause this?

There's a guy you can trust! What about camshaft retard, what did he find there? For that one, engine rpm needs to be snapped above 2K and back to idle to get an accurate reading.

Kinda sounds like a fuel problem to me (still). Could check valve in pump occasionally be sticking, letting the fuel line drain down some? Then after engine starts it hits the air pocket as it passes through regulator and engine stumbles until solid fuel is established again? That's a lot of what-if's but I think it could be possible. Can you leave fuel pressure guage on it and see if you get any blips in pressure when the stumble happens? Intermittents are difficult.

Well, money was not wasted with this last guy. Some of the baseline things are now off of the table and it needed to be done anyway after parts replacement.

yea i can keep trying to find it, will have to wait until the weekend to get the gauge, im going to replace my fuel filter, already have a brand new ac delco fuel filter, and i honestly dont think its it. but another simple thing i can rule out
