Get Doug Roe's Book about the Quadrajet, and you can find out how to make the internal mods to the carb to make it a sweetheart. The instruction booklet for the ZZZ GM retrofit into the F Bodies gives all the ship, ecm, Knock sensor, module part no for the best bolt together prom updates, that I know of.

Whats does the computer control...?
EGR solenoid
AIR solenoids
Mixture Control solenoid
TCC lockup (automatic apps)
Shift Light (manual apps)
Cold air intake solenoid, on some applications
I think that's everything....
If anyone wants a scanned copy of the GM instruction booklet Grumpy mentioned, drop me an email.
