RE: choice of carb





That hot cam will make your car overheat, for sure. You also may have altitude isues out there where you live.
You can get instructions for the 1406 Edelbrock right off their web page which may address your altitude situation,
as well as all the other pertinent data on tuning your carb.
Meanwhile, the 1406 is a very solid performer. Start by getting a good 'ol vacumn gauge and set the timing for max
vacumn. As all these guys on this list know much better than I, you have to advance your timing to deal with 
overheating issues not caused by the usual suspects in a stock engine (clogged radiator, water pump, thermostat,
so on and so forth). Then re-set your idle mixture screws for max vacumn. This may do the trick, or at least be a good starting point for dealing with air/fuel  mixture and delivery when you don't know the cam specs.
