There are 2 or 3 guys over on Thirdgen.org that kept their original ccc q-jets with some minor tweaks when they swapped in mild 350's and are running low-mid 13's and still getting 23-24 MPG. There is now way to achieve that combination of performance and mileage by dumping the computer carb for a Holley. If the car is going to be a daily driver or weekend cruiser I think money would be much better spent in areas other than a carb and dizzy swap.
