1937 120C Carb. & Fuel Pump ??'s

Since I probably can't afford the fuel injection setup in the modification forum, what are opinions on using a Stromberg EE-14 or a Carter WD-O Carb.? I have two Carter WD-O's both in decent shape, one has a casting number of 367 and the other looks like an older rebuild has a casting number of 360. In the Dar Kuehl manual he mentions the Carter should be a 366S but I see no reason why either of the two I have wouldn't work? My Stromberg EE-14 also looks like an older rebuild but I don't see where the vacuum advance would connect, is there suppose to be a metal plate under the carb. with a connection for the vacuum advance? I also need the automatic choke connecting rod part number 302632 for the stromberg EE-14. So the question is whats the better carb. to use Carter or Stromberg?
Question #2, The fuel pump vacuum pump assembly, I'm not sure what gets connected to the left side of the pump connection or the right side of the pump connection, does the right side go to the windshield wiper tube? The car is currently not running I'm just trying to connect things up. The car was a half disassembled basket case when I purchased it and nothing was ever marked. I'm also going to replace the gas line from the tank to fuel pump, looks to me like the old gas line is 1/4 ID and 5/16 OD and about 12' long. I went to the local auto parts store and the best they could do was two 6' brake lines, I prefer to use one staight line with no connections. I looked at summit racing for what they have available but was wondering if anybody else has replaced this line and what they used ??
