cam question

I would buy an RPM Edelbrock at a swap (the 318/360 ones are dirt cheap all the time) and buy the HP book on tuning Carter carburetors. It sounds like it's a pretty good base for a father/son/daughter deal. Lose the idea of a double pumper for a while, and spendyour money on gears and an 8 3/4 if you plan to race/grow it.
