If you were looking to replicate early Blackmoor you could do no better than Dragons at Dawn, but I think it would be better to use the level vs AC system as in D@D supp I.
I wouldn't use S&W since it is significantly more Gygaxian in approach and flavor.
The RC is a safe choice, provided you treated it as guidlines, not rules. I suspect that Dark Dungeons might be problematical in that regard. Basic Fantasy is good and covers a lot of the same ground, but not quite as much.
If you like 3e, that's probably the best option. Not personally a fan though.
I'd say my upcoming Champions of ZED rules are almost ideal for use in Blackmoor, but they prolly won't be generally available till next summer.
