Buckeye, what do you mean "center carb had gas coming out of jets"? Do you mean accelerator pump shooter, venturi boosters or ??? May have a bad needle/seat & intermittent float level issue.
when running, if fuel is seen dripping from venturi, the fuel level is way to high in float bowl. whether the needle is stuck or dirt stuck in it or float is bad or stuck, that could cause this. after engine sits and fuel evaporates then it would restart. usually when you go all in on a 6 bbl there is a sometimes a lean spike which may explain why engine would come to life with full throttle, which you described, and then have the problems with excessive fuel.
