I have one on my 75 vette and I have one on my 383 in my 73 Z-28 and I love both. I have the 650 speed demon.

I started out with the 750 speed demon on my vette and I currently have the 850 speed demon. Both worked great I just felt I needed a little more flow than I was getting with the 750.

Demon makes a special 650 for the ZZ4. You can find it by searching for Crate Demon carbs. I think Scroggin Dickey carries them and also Salle Chevrolet. I had mine special order from Summit when there was a 10% discount.

I have the 625 road demon. Was PERFECT for the l 48 and probably could have taken a little more motor. ZZ4 is too much for it though. Overall a great carb though. Fuel economy while you're cruising and punch when you hit it.

The 625 did not provide enough for your ZZ4? How big SHOULD we (those of us running the ZZ4) go? I was thinking of the 650, is that still too small?

Here is the part number on the vacuum secondary model. #1282010VEZZ4
If you want the mechanical secondary one just drop the VE out of the part number. Here is a link to a chevrolet dealership who carries them. http://www.sdpc2000.com/cart.asp?act...1922&pid=47226

Mystery Machine,
I found these numbers in the BG catalog at http://www.martelbros.com/cgi-bin/st...y=demon/13.htm

1282010C ZZ4 For mechanical secondaries

1282010VEC ZZ4 For Vacuum secondaries
I didn't look for a price on either carb, but figure in the price of a choke.

I used a mechanical secondary because I have a manual trans and they seem to respond better. Most people use vacuum secondary on automatic trans cars. It is pretty much your choice.
