As the carb goes can you bolt it to the manifold and not worry about the electrical stuff..

I got the pleasure of riding in a car that was on the "Atkins Diet".
It was fun.
Are you trying to get the SA nest to actually work w/the later carb?

If you're removing the nest then there's no problem. Just seal up the ports on the base plate.
Don't make the mistake of using one short piece of hose to cap two nipples because this can allow a leak into your idle. Each nipple needs to be capped individually.
