If the price difference is feasable for you, I'd go fuel injected over carbed.

the car came with a 403 and the guy down the road had a regal with a 455 just sitting so i asked about it and well 400$ later we had a 455 the nwe added boltons but the motor ended up spinning like 4 bearings at the track so he limped it home and that winter had it all rebuilt with keith black pistons 10 1/5 to 1 comp 1.5 roller rockers a .496 .520 lift cam edelbrock intake and heads ext and the chrome came yr after yr for like 4 years now its time to go with a bigger roller cam, bigger carb and get the heads done for a good rwhp increase by the way on the engine dyno it had 500 ft lbs at 1500 rpm and kept above 450 till the redline its sick has a full 3in exaust too so it sounds good too
