Default Buying a SEA DEMON this weekend, what one?

Ok here we go again. I have decided on a Bary Grant Sea Demon. Since they do not make an 800CFM I am wondering if 750 is to small or the 850CFM is to large?

Heres the specs again, I would love to hear what you think.
I hate to throw away $600 on the wrong carb

454 MarkIV
.30 over
Comp Cam around 236 duration .050, nothing ratical
9:1 compression
Large Oval 781 castings

Thanks
JIM

You might as well ask what oil to buy. If you dont spin it over 5400 the 750 is plenty, the 850 is too big. Youll hear many other opinions.

We're all in agreement so far. I would say 750 also.
