303 Air Intake and Carburetor?

Hi, I'm running an original 303 in my 52 Super 88 and I wanted to add some more power to it.
I thought about changing the Air Intake Manifold and the Carburetor but I do not know what would fit. Does any Carburetor f.e. from Edelbrock or Holley fit on my Motor?
Can you please help me?

P.S. I'm not sure if this is the right place in the Forum. If not please let me know.

Best Regards,
Kai

The 303 is from the first gen Oldsmobile V8 family (1949-1964). When these engines were relatively new, there was LOTS of speed equipment available. Today, not so much. You can find many of the older intakes for these engines available used on ebay and other auction sites. Ross Racing Engines specializes in speed parts for these first-gen motors.

Here is another possible source of used intakes.

Thank you very much!
The second Link is nice!

Is it worth the effort to change air intake and carburetor? I mean is more power feeble?

Best regards!
