Hi all.

My torana is currently running a 304 with a 750 dp holley.

I reckon the carb is a bit big for it so im looking at throwing on a 650.

Im not really after max power as i only drive it on the street so good driveability is a must.

Should i go holley or demon ?

Cheers, Joel

I'll throw another brand in there....have a look at the quickfuel carbs, just installed one on my SBC, good buying for the features they have - try jegs or summit

More refined design... Although the new Holley HP's are of similar standard.

Demon's look good, but I have heard lots of people having tuning problems with them.... They never seem to get the 100%

+1 for fitting a Quaddie. Most underrated carb there is..

Cheap and easy to pick one up. As mr5000 said ^ just make sure it gets set up right and you'll love it.

Small primaries and large secondaries make it perfect for a 304/308 on the street.
