Determining carb?

Hey everyone, I've just gotten into the search for upgrades to my 90rs. The guy I bought it from dropped at 350 in her from an 85 pick-up. he replaced the carb added a flowmaster exhaust and performance headers. I'm new to engine work. I've always been good at body work and interior stuff, but am sometimes at a loss on the engine. I'm trying to figure up a parts list and for performance upgrades but I really need help here. I don't know what the carb is. I know its a 4 barrel carb from edelbrock but i don't know how many CFMs or really how to figure that out. Can anyone tell me how I can learn what my carb is and any suggestions to some upgrades on the 350?

Check for a number stamped into the front of the base of the carb

It should be at the bottom on the passenger side.
