That is an excellent carb, but the divorced choke is different that what was used on a Pontiac carb.  It will need a slight recalibration for what you are doing.  It's also side fuel inlet, not front like a Pontiac carb.

If you want to use it call me at the shop.  I can put together a kit with tuning parts to set it up exactly for what you are doing.  I'm here 7am-4pm, M-F EST...tks..
