Bruce, I have an early 4-cylinder car, so I will let the 6 ylinder boys
answer those questions.  Excellent links to vendors here:
http://austin-healeys.com/vendorlinks.htm a site maintained by one of our
listers

Many of  these are AH specialists and have more parts than Moss or Victoria
British.

Oh, heck, I'll answer the other questions anyway:  It should have as much or
more grunt as your TR250 did (by the way I used to have a 4A, wish I still
did)

The motor is a little bit of a chore to pull, big engine, small hole, but
certainly doable, you will want good strong hoist, chainse etc.

Not sure on the vacuum units, maybe somebody rebuilds them, I have seen a
couple DIY articles on Lucas vacuum advance unit rebuilds, doesn't look too
easy to me.  Others may have more here.
