How about a Holley or an Edlebrock?

im not a huge fan of edlebrock carbs...i like holley.are they all interchangable?...or is there a specific model holley makes for mopar?

Basically, they are all interchangeable.  You could run into some situations where a little adapting is needed but if you are looking used, you are most likely going to run into one of their universal models.

It sounds like you somewhat new to cars and general repair.  By the sound of your question.  Not that its a bad thing.  I consider myself a novice at this hobby.  Compared to others on this site.  Going on that.  I would highly recommend an Edelbrock carb over a Holley.  Based on the fact.  That they are extremely easy to work on, adjust, and repair.  Compared to a Holley.  In a matter of no time and some easy instructions.  you can change all your jets, rods, springs and adjust your floats.

For every day use, an Edelbrock is more reliable in my opinion and many others on this site.  If you are comfortable working on carbs.  And want more adjustments from your carb.  Then a Holley, Proform or Demon would be more to your liking.  For the amount of money you want to spend.  you can buy a new Edelbrock out of the box. 

Just my $.02 But buy nEdelbrock
