Not sure how many miles you drive your car, but the current EFI offerings are pretty expensive. If it were mine, I would consider a good quality carb and spend the difference on converting to an overdrive transmission. With the torque available in a 460 it would easily push that car along the highway at 1500 rpm, and with an AOD would still have good performance in the lower gears. Just something else to consider.
Whoops just re-read your post and see this is a 4 speed car. Converting to a 5 speed OD would be an option, but might be cost prohibitive. But you should be able to get pretty good money for your 4 speed from someone restoring to offset the cost.

Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!
