If it's really an 1100 model then it's an Autolite and not a Holley. You may want to have you parts guy clarify (if he can....) which is which. Holley has a carb rebuilding facility and sells rebuilt carbs (such as a rebuilt Autolite 1100 in a Holley box). There is also a Holley carburetor that is a direct replacement for an 1100 Autolite. That would be the Holley 1946 carburetor. Holley also rebuild these carbs (of their own design). There may be a part number for a NEW 1946 Holley coming up in the NAPA catalog, but I doubt there are any left in NAPA wharehouses, because I'm pretty sure Holley quit making those years and years ago.
IMO, go with the rebuilt Holley 1946. They've been a lot more dependable than Autolite 1100s.

better gas milage and performance....for probably about the same as you were gonna spend
you need...
1v to 2v adapter
a 5200 carb (or comprable)
and a drop base air cleaner

i think most 2 barrels will work.... just be careful it isnt too high a cfm....these 6's can only use some much...any more would be a waste
