"boggin" down on me

so im driving along casually and i start going up a hill and my engine struggles...i floor it and eventually it revs high. it sounds like its boggin and giving me a deep throaty sound (not healthy). however...if i floor it from a stop, ill have no problem.

possibly a lifter? dirty injectors?
help plz

does the vehicle downshift? if not there's your problem.
