That's a big can of worms right there. A swap like that would be a mess, from getting the carb to clear in the engine bay, making room for the distributor, to getting the exhaust, a new tranny, and gauges all working right. Then there's suspension, drive train, the list goes on. In other words, depends on how big your wallet is, and how much you really want to do the swap.
