Carbs that fit the stock manifold

Are there any carbs other then the nikki that will fit on the stock manifold, like a small holley or edelbrock?? not looking for mega power, just newer equipment and want to try and save some money by not buying a new manifold right away.

lol, i love that response. There isn't one, but if you want, someone wrote a tutorial on how to mod your manifold to fit a holley carb. I would suggest picking up a manifold from a junkyard to test it with though.
