1.0/5.01.0/5.01.0/5.01.0/5.01.0/5.0   Speed Demon
Reviewer: hughj from Hanover, Pa.     June 06, 2011
Bought an 850 Speed Demon (when they were still in business). Never ran right even with professional carb tuners help. Their tech service wasn't much help either.

4.0/5.04.0/5.04.0/5.04.0/5.04.0/5.0   Update on Barry Grant Road Demon
Reviewer: frisco@charter.net from Canton, NC     June 06, 2008
This carb performed very well right out of the box. However; I had a fuel leakdown problem from day one with this carb. I installed a BG quick kit as was suggested by tech@bg to no avail. Finally sent the carb back after quite some time. Barry Grant fixed the carb and the turn around time was very fast. Less than one week. Despite my original disapointment with the carb; I am very pleased with the customer service. Thanks to those folks at Barry Grant.

2.0/5.02.0/5.02.0/5.02.0/5.02.0/5.0   Seems more touchy than any other brand
Reviewer: Beenaway2long from Syracuse NY     February 10, 2005
In General, I feel this is for an experienced carb tuner. Not for a shadetree guy.
The Road Demon would not work on my 330hp crate motor. Found that out after calling tech support. (Due to cam specs) Bought the carb from Summit when I bought the motor. Neither Summit nor B/G would take it back. At the time, the Crate Demon wasn't advertised in the Summit catalog, soo.. I ended up getting stuck for buying ANOTHER carb. Not too happy about that. After installing the Crate Demon, I had problems. Turned out out be the link between the secondaries and primaries on the driverside, causing the secondaries to open prematurely and sporatically. With that cured, it still has a lean pop under rapid acceleration. More adjusting... B/G also wants you to add more timing than GM specs out. I'm disappointed. I heard they were great.
