The Holley Truck Avenger carb is just fine you'll have some bogging out issues with any street carb, but this carb was designed so it wouldn't. It also comes in a 770cfm version. The low and mid-range on it is impressive (it pulls like a tractor) and the top end is just scary when it opens up. Hands down the best carb i've owned for the this purpose of wheeling.
I was leary about running the D35/30 combo with this motor simply cause i've destroyred 2 D35s with the 4.0L (4.56 and 35's) in the past and actually bent the axle tubes. So a D44 or 60 would be in order. I went overkill to a D70 rear and D44 front both 8bolt full floaters and haven't had a problem yet running 38's. If your using a smaller tire (31 or 32) and 4.10 or even 4.56s you might be ok. The larger axles also allow you to run larger U-joints.
A stock 304 is similar in power to the 4.0L but keep in mind mine has been balanced, cammed, and ported to match intake and header flanges as well as remove all internal casting marks and square corners.
