Sounds like fuel delivery (acceleration requires more fuel than steady cruise).

Fellows, this may have been addressed many times, but I have just experienced 
the problem. Under acceleration, the engine bucks and coughs but runs fine 
once up to speed. 
Plugs are clean, dashpot oil OK, PerTronix ignition system, 
engine warmed up and jets adjusted according to specs. Sure would appreciate 
your thoughts.
