What carb is on it now? Is the motor stock? If so, why not just get a rebuild kit and do it yourself. It is prob an autolite 21oo 2 barrel. Real easy to rebuild.

Then, spend your money on fixing other stuff that will need it.

I've had great results with a Holley 600 CFM.

Edelbrocks are good for bolt on and go applications.
