demon carb = excellent but lotsa $$$$
edelbrock = easy to tune
holley = holley !

holley 650 double pumper, I had a edelbrock, which is
basically a new Carter carburator, its the same design, the only
reason its easier to tune is because you dont have to take
it apart to change the jets. But for a set up like have, go with the
double pumper, or even the vacuum secondaries, model 1850
I think?
by the way- the tune up kit for the edelbrock isnt all that cheap.
