Hi, I had a very similar problem, ran fine under most all conditions but pulling a steep grade. Turned out that the fuel filter was partialy plugged
. Enough gas got through in most conditions but when it needed all it could get, it was not enough. A $10 filter fixed the problem. I would check for vaccum leaks as this could cause very similar symptoms. A simple crack or split end can cause the engine to suck air instead of gas/air through the intake. There are alot of hoses and each one should be checked. even a loose end can leak and affect performance and manifold pressure.
This type of failure(cracking or splitting) is VERY common

Sounds like a plugged catalitic converter. When they heat up they block air from getting by and the engine will not run.
