I had the same situation...I just purchased a Q Jet 1901 which is a direct replacement for the Rochester. Actually its a new Rochester built by Eldebrock. I was considering the 1901 or Holley Avenger 770 but after reading all the resposes to the carb questions I went with the 1901. Rebuild would be cheaper but I decided on new to match the rest of the new hardware I just put in my 402BB. Look under Carburetor War which is a topic on this issue. Also Classic Heartbeat also has an issue on this topic.
Regards,
