"I have always wondered why lycoming and continental have steadfastly >> stuck to ancient carb"
I have always agreed with this kind of statement but Jeff and Larry are right, they do work. For those interested in this topic there is a good article in this month's AOPA on "modern" air cooled engines. The article is written by Klaus Savier of Light Speed Engineering. If you don't get AOPA just Google the company and you will see the same kind of information. This guy is an efficiency expert and has developed a lot of equipment for the experimental aircraft market. Electronic ignition, electronic fuel injection, automotive spark plugs just to name a few. He has a Rutan Varieze with a IO-320 that he uses as his test bed and gets incredible performance out of it.
