Rebuild current Carb or new carb altogether

there was some flavor of the motorcraft on IH motors, and that may be what i'm thinking of that bolts up. however, i've slept since then so i could be off on my reckoning. either way an a-dapt-or kit should have the motor running like a song.
I could be wrong about the Motorcraft....I just know the Holley 2300 has to have an adapter to go on the Super Six intake.
