I had a pair of these, and NEVER did like them... hot starts was a real b1tch sometimes.... fattened them up to 70/74 jets and then they ran *okay*... still never liked them... i think the needle and seats are also too small...

Fix, you don't think Demons will be too much on a small block? I would have recommended a set of 4150s - 750 cfm.
I always had bad luck having BGs provide too much fuel to small blocks that ran less than 400 cubes and less than 350 or so Hp. I had a 410 stroked small block that I thought was big enough for a 750 Demon, but I had to send it back to BG twice to lean it out.
*** On a side note, has anyone had any trouble with BG lately? I sent them a damn fuel pump almost a year ago and they still haven't sent it back...

His carburetors have vacuum secondaries which i think is where he is getting his lien condition along with the small jets..

WOW... Just frickin'... WOW...
That fuel pump I sent back to BG... Guess what??? I was RIGHT!
They sent me my fuel pump back today, unrepaired, with a cute little message saying the following:
