You are missing the point. A cam swap or heads, or headers is a pretty fair test; 90% of the engines out there will have similar results. Carburetors are very picky, what works one engine will run terrible on another. My engine runs great with a 750HP but may not with a 750 Edlebrock. Every engine will behave differently to a change in carburetors. Granted each combo could be tuned but it would take an enormous amount of time to go through the trouble of building each of the tested carburetors to engine in question. A "good" tune takes about 4-6 hours. Multiply that by 3-6 different carbs and you can see how even a magazine might have trouble coughing up for that kind of dyno time.
