How cold are you talking about? If you are talking about extreme cold, you may want to invest in some type of engine blanket or block warmer.

I found posts regarding either a motorcraft 2100 or a weber 34/34. I am working on contacting people about questions to get some more knowledge. I think I am leaning more towards the motorcraft with a 4.0 head install and an HEI dist. I think I would solve a lot of problems with that combo.
