Default sporatic missing

my 94 gt is missing real sporatically. It does this off and on all throughout the rpm range. I put new plugs(autolites) and performance wires on it in December(plugs in august). It acts like a plug wire's jumpin ground,but they're only a few months old. Thewires did seem longer than the originals. Also, is it possible that the alternator could be breaking down? The lights do dim or flicker sometimes(every night)for no reason(not just because the compressor or cooling fans either).
