Larry sent me a Holley carb. Thanks Larry.
Here are some pictures. Adjustable float level is cool.
You could probably bolt a entire Holley float bowl assembly
on the back of a block of aluminum and make your
own dual throat float type carb pretty easy.

Looks like a 780cfm off of a Z28

I don't think it is a 780 as the throats are real small.
Larry told me they had it on a 13B.

465 cfm, and ran on a 13b in a rotary pickup.
This size worked well because we ran a 2" tall open plenum under the carb.
If you ran individual runners, you had to run a 650 cfm to get the same
power. The 390 with the open plenum gave better mid rpm response.
This was done as a poor man's Webber as the Holley was only $140 back in the
day when this one was purchased.
