I have always stayed away from the BG/Demon carbs as I always thought they were just over priced Holley copies. In fact there was a large law suite between Barry Grant and Holley. As a result BG had to do some design changes, mostly cosmetic to settle the suite. I disagree with the judges decision. At first BG was just tuning/modifying the Holley carbs (like the carb shop does) and as the business grew started making Holley copies then the law suite. You would think that for the money they charge for a Holley copy they would have better quality control. Some people are attracted to the Demon carbs because they are new and advertising has convinced them they are better than a Holley. So far I am not convinced
