396 engine problem

Could simply be fuel percolation!
When it's hot the fuel gets extremely hot and starts to boil in the carb. It starts flooding a bit. That's why it runs rough and smells rich.
What carb?
What intake?
You got headers?
A stock or different cam?

the carb is a quadrajet, no it doesnt have headers, i couldnt find any numbers to match the casting numbers on the intake manifold but the numbers were 3831067 and below that and a little to the side was T 1, and i have no clue about the camshaft, the guy i bought it from said the original owner rebuilt the motor so i dont know if he used the same cam or used a different one
