WALBRO Pump for Carbureted System??

I know it's not exactly the same (in-tank vs rail mount) but you can run a pump intended for efi with a carb no problem. The pump in my car is a Walbro 255lph (forgot the p# but it's the "high pressure" one turbo imports use) and the setup is 3/8" (-6 AN) feed/return lines with the regulator mounted on the end of the fuel rail, past the carb, just like efi.

As for the ignition, take a look at MSD's programmable digital 6. You lock the distributor on 0 degrees, then just program initial and total timing, curve, retard, etc with a laptop. Much easier to set up than dealing with distributor springs and advance slots.
