my old car did something really similiar. except it would rev really slowly. check the ground wire on the engine. clean it up. also check injectors like he said^

ground wire,fuel pump, dizzy, spark plugs.start with the cheapest which would be plugs and wires then move up from there hope this helps also is it throwing back any codes ?? perhaps the carb is dirty try spraying some carb cleaner in there or rebuild it.

If this is your el camino, you should post this in the GM section.
My guess is vapor lock, but take it to a mechanic if you can't take the time to trouble shoot the issue.

Sometimes the ECU won't let the engine hurt itself.
It pops a code and the engine won't rev over that. Do you have a check engine light? Do you have the device to reset engine codes?-Bob
