Which Carb Gives a Balance of Power & MPG?

As far as tuning, the best way to tune a carbureted (sp?) car is by a wide-band oxygen sensor put in the exhaust manifold and hooked up to a real-time A/F ratio meter. You simply drive the car, look at the meter under different throttle conditions, and swap jets and metering rods until the ratio is where it should be.
