360 Performance Suggestions Wanted

Camshaft is fine,for now.... Quickfuel is sweet,but pricey..(Have one),a 750 4779 Holley,is my choice ,on carbs..(can be had used,cheaply. Start simple,without the extra adjustments,learn one thing at a time...) Does "stock distributor..",mean points,or an later model 72 electronic stock distributor? .... Either way,if you have patience,you could curve it to roughly 34-36 @ 3000 rpm, & 12 to 18 initial.. Should help smooth the cam out..A good distributor curve,& a good accelerater pump shot tune,completely changes street drivability....Just,my roughly quick thoughts,off what you have posted.
Spark plug gap,starts with listing the whole combination....We be bass ackwards...
