Holley or Weber
#2
My Weber tends to do pretty well when I'm in the high desert version of mud, but you may find it easier to find a snorkel adapter to save your air filter from being constantly muddied up for a Holley.

If you use it on the road a lot (and care about milage) I'd do an Offy dual plane and a Webber 32/36. If you mostly just thrash it in the mud and have a lot of time at WOT, Offy single plane (or similar intake that a webber bolts directly to) and a Webber 38. You can do the addaptor plate to the stock intake but they tend to leak. Just my 2c.

Check this out:

They might not allways be the cheapest, but their stuff is good, complete and RIGHT, in my experience at least.
In response to the 20R watter neck:
from the link
Warning: Both single and dual plane manifolds require an 81-83 style thermostat housing
So, not the 20R, I have an 81 and didn't remember having to get a different h2o neck/t-stat housing.
One other helpful piece of info:
Warning: Single plane manifold uses an 8 bolt water plate(under manifold)
Warning: Dual plane manifold uses an 11 bolt water plate(under manifold)
There are different intakes for the 20R vs 22R engines so if you were gonna do a 20R head you either wanna do it all at once or get the 38 carb and a ONE PIECE adapter like this
http://www.lceperformance.com/Spiral...-p/1033028.htm
not the 2 piece that always leak like crazy, then get the intake when you get your 20R head.
Hope this helps!

Just the carb and adapter would be all you need. I would highly reccomend getting a fuel pressure regulator and gauge as well. You could just get one of the kits that come with the Redline 2 piece adaptor and run that for a while, but, they are known to be problamatic. Depends on how long before you're thinking of going to the 20R head/intake ect. I did a lot of bit by bit mods to my engine as money allowed and ended up wasting some money on parts I later didn't need when I got what I REALLY wanted.
If you're "on the fence" about the 20R head, I'd get the 38, a one piece adapter, and start saving up for a good set of headders (stay away from headdman). Headders and carb really help "wake up" a 22R. I'm sure you will see some gains from the carb but you'll see a lot more with a headder and the carb.
On a side note, I hope you don't have to do emissions where you're at. I don't know if you'd get the 38 to smog. If you don't, pull most of the emissions garbage when you do the carb, cleans up the engine bay a lot and most of the stuff hurts the running of the engine IMHO.
