George,
re the carb, size depends on how hot the motor is, as dude said he finds the edelbrock 600 fine, most would go for a smaller 4BBl on the 260, but if the heads have bigger valves, warmer cam etc.. the 600 might be ok. Personally i would go a smaller carb on a stockish 260.
I would go for an edelbrock over a holley if originality is not a priority as i think they are a better carb and easier to jet and work on (and dont leak like holleys) thats just my .02 others might think otherwsie.
The other nice modification would be electornic ignition.
