Default 1967 tempest 2bbl carb suggestions

Hello,
I have a 1967 Tempest 326 2bbl. I think the carb has reached the end of it's life at 189,000 miles. I have rebuilt it several times and still get a tip in hesitation, poor cold runability, etc. I am torn between finding a new carb, or putting a 4 bbl on with new manifold. I would like a simple insatallation that doesn't look cobbled. The engine has been bored .040 over.

My 326 67 LeMans was originally a 2bbl car, when I bough it the old man had already installed an Edlebrock 4bbl carb & intake combo. I removed the Edlebrock combo and installed the original 4bbl & Q-jet off my 68 Firebird 400. I was given the original 2bbl intake & carb by the family when I bough the car, however, that 68 4bbl & Q-jet made a HUGE difference in performance on that little 326! Night and day going from the Edlebrock combo to the stock 4bbl combo...
