HI
Sorry not to get back to ya on the 460 swap but I think it would be a high $$ swap into the 84 4X4 and I didn't realy know what you would need.
As for the car switch I don't think the 1b would help you would lose power. I would stay with the 2b you might invest in a new 2b (don't go Holly bad for milage) I'd go with a stock replacement. or just get your rebuilt by a reptule builder. It might just have a blown power valve. also look for gas leaks in the lines anyway from the tank to the carb.. even a small leak would cut big into the gas milage. look for old rubber lines and lose fittings.
