petercscherer Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 I've had great experiences with Demon carbs, it's all Holley style components, but has a modern and sleek look. Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Edelbrock is great for ease of tune. Holley and Demon give more versatility to dial in a perfect tune but require more work and knowledge to get it there so it's more common that people have engines that don't run right on them.

q-tip Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 Edelbrock, less seems to go wrong, I've had to rebuild too many Holley carbs that were just rebuilt.....Damn power valve... Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 Demon......, !!!!! !!!! Hands down......... but select the right demon that matches your components. 1 Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 The top end kit calls for 600-650 cfm the demon at 625 is right in the middle of that range i need a carb that will fire as quickly as possible so i can break in the cam Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 There is always the good ol quadrajet, but you have to find one of the 15 people that knows how to tune them right. 1 Quote Link to comment
