LT1 problems, rough idle, no power

This is not my car, its my friend's, but I was hoping someone on here has more LT1 experience than me. His car is a 95 Z28/LT1/6SPD. It idles rough as crap, you can smell gas very strong, and it does not seem to have much power. One person suggested the fuel pressure regulator. I was thinking clogged injectors, or something with the fuel system. Any other ideas?

You'd probably be better off posting at www.camaroz28.com in the LT1 section, probably not too many knowledgable LT1 people on this board, tons over on the other website although I guess once you know about motors you can apply it to other motors, but still, you know what I'm saying
