A carb'd engine can be just as efficient or more so than a injected engine (mpg wise), it depends on who tuned it and what load you are running, I am not saying a carb is more efficient across every throttle position, but it can outdo EFI especially if you lean it out a bit which is rather difficult on EFI.
