    I would take a gasket for the stock carb and a gasket for the holley to the parts store and see if they have an adapter that would work... maybe look online and see if they give any dimensions.

    I think you have a small base Carter WCFB, and need to put the large base Holley in its place.
    Here's an example of the type of adapter you might use:

    I am told that the Edelbrock carburetors, which are versions of the Carter AFB, are made with both patterns. I imagine that one of those would bolt right onto your intake.
    Best of luck in your search.
