i thin you should sell it and get somethign that is a lot easier to work on, since it is most likely carbed.
in your shoes id look into a weber progressive carb and a reground cam maybe...

best bet is to sell it, u can try to get a new motor but lets do this equation:

motor + labor + parts > what the car is worth

just make it simple on yourself and buy something easier to work on
