3800 rpm and up, no gas?

Here is the deal. Car is in the sig, but now with 3.42 gears. If I let it set and idle it "loads up" and when I get on it or even come close to opening the 4 bbls it bocks and bout dies. If I run it cold same thing. Doesnt matter the operating temp it does it. When I shut the car off I smell gas but no leaking. I know I have a bad exhaust leak but I doubt that is the problem (Collector gaskets). I am thinking carb needs rebuild, maybe a bad modul (sp?) (stock), or fouled plugs (caused by the other problems?). Its like it runs out of gas. I can get on it and it be fine, let of and drive for a few then get back on it and it misses and spudders. Please help because the drag strip opens in Muncie, IN on the 9th for test and tune nights and I need to be there!!!!

Thanks!
