What carb would you run?

I'm building an engine now, here are specs:
482" sideoiler
KC Stage II Edelbrock heads
KC solid roller
11:1 CR
Performer RPM intake
MSD ignition
Aluminum flywheel
Tremec TKO 600 RR
Car is a Contemporary - weighs about 2300 lbs.
HP street driving, occasional road racing.

There's not enough $ left for fuel injection. I really wanted Webers but there's not enough $ left for them either!

I have a chance to buy a very clean Barry Grant 825 race demon at a very good price. Is that a good carb for this engine? All in all what would you guys recommend? I only have one prerequisite - I know guys will argue with me but it's the only point I'm not flexible on - I don't like vacuum secondary carbs with manual transmission cars and I won't run one. Anything else I'm all ears. What do you guys think? Thanks.
