Any carb, properly tuned, will give you good all around performance.
A few notes - the AVS designs use an air door to control how fast the seconaries come in. So you can run a "larger" cfm carb without any of the negatives that used to come with that pairing.
On a 440, any carb up to 800cfm can be a good match.
Then you have the ratings themselves... Edelbrocks, non HP (oldschool 4150 or 3310s, all factory type) Holleys, and Carters are dry flowed. Which means they flow less than advertised once fuel is added to the airstream. That's about 15% less when they are on a running engine. The HP Holleys, Demons, and most custom shop carbs are rated wet flowed. So the 670cfm HP or Avenger Holley, when dry flowed, will flow over 750.
The boosters in a Carter design (Edelbrock) tend to be more responsive than the Holleys on the street type carbs, and Holley's approach to that is to add more fuel both thru the acelerator pump(s) and the power valve circuit. I find the Edelbrocks and Carters will get a little better fuel economy, especially on a milder engine and heavier car.
My vote would be the 1813 AVS, 800cfm.
