need a few peoples views on the Barry Grant Mighty Demon 750 d/p. I'm thinking of replacing the old 800 d/p with something a bit fresher. Whos used them and are there any issues with them, Thanks.

G'day mate . I run a 750 Race Demon and they are a pretty good out of the box carb. Need a few tweeks hear and there but still good to start with. I have a mate running a 650 Mighty Demon on a 308 cub holden with a 100 shot on it and he is running 10.3's on the 1/4 in a 3000 pound car and his is out of the box !!! That should say enough !!!

I run a BG 750 DP, not touched and runs great....

Yep, i've used Barry Grant carbies for the last 6 years and all good. I got rid of the 850DP, for a Mighty Demon 750 nearly 2 years ago.

I had an 850 DP on my 351 Windsor. Have now got 750 Mighty Demon, revs out clearer and has heaps better bottom end.

what makes them better?

More adjustments, can get sleeves to make them larger instead of buying a bigger carb.

Yes, as in say the 750 works, then you change to a bigger cam that requires more cfm you can turn the carb into a 850 for example, save buying a different carb every time you change something, i'm on my 4th now.

do you know what is different from the mighty demon compared to the race demon
