RPM or Trans prob or what ???

RPM or Trans prob or what ???
Vehicle seems to be stalling. At first I thought it might be a shifting prob, but sometimes it seems that it's the engine that fails to rev up. When I try to accelerate, if I give it a good dose of pedal, the engine doesn't want to rev, and then it seems at though the trans either shifts when it shouldn't, or fails to shift when it should. I can get to speed, 80 MPH+, but I have to do so with a slow steady pedal pressure.
AM guessing MAF (orig.), or fuel filter (orig.), or fuel pump (orig.), or plugs (replaced 35K ago), but really don't have a clue.
Any help determining the issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
