I think the Offenhauser 5206 will let you use holleys.
A VERY low performance intake if I remember my dyno results though, the Edelbrock intake and just about any single four barrel intake spanks it.

Everyone trots that out as if it were some sort of valid test, but they were too cheap and/or lazy to get a couple of strip kits to calibrate the carbs, they said the engine was running 10.9:1 a/f ratio, i.e. way too rich. If Offy was spending AD money with that rag, you can bet it wouldn't have even been included without a re-jetting. To the OP, the low Offy manifold can only run Holleys sideways NOT inline. 
I believe this is not so...I have owned one for over 30 years, holleys DO fit normally (F to R), and 2 600s work nicely OOTB.
I'm 55 now, no time to waste. Not a week goes by that I don't hear about someone passing on.Let's get out there,smoke some tires,have a beer with a good friend,do what you have always wanted to do.I am pretty sure no one will ever say on their deathbed "gee I'm glad my life was calm and boring"
