Default my uncle was lookin at webbers for his TR6, maybe stromberg makes some too?....

and if you are going to use forced induction, i suggest making a carb box, not just a hat on top. if the carb has same pressure inside of it and outside, no chnace of blown seals and gaskets. whereas if you just pressurize the air going it, itll want to push everyhing out of the carb as quick as possible, oh and get a carb with the solid foam floats, not the hollow brass or bronze (whatever they are) they will implode/colapse. I read up a bit on this a while ago, i wanted to twin turbo my built chevy 350, i had about 11:1 so it wasnt all the feesible though, the next onw will be forced though, possibly S/C though, its linear so its easier to tune, where as a turbo spikes, etc, i ahve no idea how to make a carb live with that.
