Carb recommendations

I'd go AVS2 and add the jetting kit and wide-band air/fuel gauge to tune. Gauge allows you to see what carb is doing, saves a lot of time and guessing.
 
Well winters coming and want to do my cam swap any thoughts on the cams below? Like to stick with a mechanical cam.

Of those two, use the Mopar Purple cam. Or, if you want a Comp Cam, go one size smaller than what you posted, go with the XS274S

The XS282 will present as a much larger cam when taking into account the lash setting and LSA differences. Too large for what you are looking for, IMO
 
Swapped the plugs, looks pretty fouled. Guessing I should swap these out every 2k miles or so?

thinking of pull the motor on the winter to swap out the cam. For what’s it worth the car is kinda of a dog, I was expecting it to be faster than what it is. Thinking with the cam change hopefully be a little quicker.

Any recommendations on a cam for the set up I’m running?

thanks for everyone’s help/input

The plugs you show are 3/4" reach....you must have aluminum heads as stock iron heads 3/8" reach heads. My vote is to stay with the ORIGIONAL Carter AVS, jetted for your application. Did you mention if the distributor advance curve was improved?

You don't really want to just throw parts at a problem to solve it. You're going to end up with a lot of good spare parts. What torque converter you running? If it's not loose enough you'll have a heck of a time getting it to idle with that cam, and it'll tend to stumble off the line. Your rear end gears seem pretty steep for that combo.
