Want to purchase a Demon carb and they want the weight of the car.
What does a 1971 Mustang Grande with 351C 4V and toploader weigh?
Can't find it in the manuals.

Mike,

Your best best to to take it to a local truck scale. For a few bucks
(20 or so) you'll get a very accurate weight.

Check your title/registration. In a lot of
states, the weight is listed there. It's close enough
to pick a carb.

Just get a Holley 750 Double pumper that should take care of it. Unless you
have a dual quad manifold in which case get two. lol

That's, odd. But it seems to me that if the vehicle weight is
important to such a point they ask before they personalize your carb,
I'd go weigh it with a half a tank of gas and give them that.
