Which type of carburetor?

The edelbrock performer does have the smaller 318 ports. Some people open them up to 360 size if using it on a 360, but on a mild, low compression stock-ish build, I doubt you'd ever notice a difference.

For a carb, I'm a holley guy. I'd probably just toss a cheapie 1850 on it and call it good. I ran one on a mild 408 for years.
