Spot on with convertor.
Mixer looks like a 300a.
You'd have to get the right mixer to suit, but i wouldn't go for Impco on yours, go for a complex convertor with simple mixer setup..... OMVL convertor with a basic ring mixer.

The only way i'd be using that Impco on an injected Falcon, is to run a GRA throttle body instead of Impco mixer.
