I'd say the Edelbrock Performer 2, is a good performance street choice, for your intended use......A Holley 4780 model 800 cfm carb would be a good choice, I know you don't like Holleys, but the 4780 is a no frills performance carb, very reliable, easy to tune, and stay tuned, the only upgrade you might want to do is an electric choke?

Stock heads or ported or aftermarket? If you've got stock heads I would highly recommend the edelbrock CH4B intake, they pop up here and on ebay used for a good price. In hot rod's 383 intake shootout, the 383 version of the CH4B (the DP4B) performed on par with the RPM and IIRC the DP4B gave better bottom end power than the RPM when both were tested against a stock headed 383. When they went to CNC ported edelbrock rpm heads then the RPM had about a 30hp lead over the DP. And even with the aftermarket heads, under 5000rpm there was not much difference between the two, so for a 5000rpm 440, especially one with stock heads, I'd take a good look at the CH4B. Low rise, very stockish looking intake.
