The main thing I will recommend is getting the center to center measurement of your current manifold/carb combo and try to find something with the same measurement. Otherwise you'll end up having to modify or fabricate a new base.

Wouldn't that be nice.

Too many variables between all the different manifold manufacturers (OE, Edelbrock, Offenhauser, Weiand...) and all the engine configurations.
