We have had some discussion on Carb setups and Zenith in particular again. I would like to get any feedback on the following website and experiance with any of these carbs.

http://www.zenithfuelsystems.com/updraft_267ec.htm

"Precise Engine Speed Control: no droop over the full power range of the engine
Simplified Installation: eliminates all external linkage, brackets, belts and pulleys
Safety: no serviceable moving parts near or around the engine fan
Lower Fuel Consumption: allows for lower engine RPM settings
Reliability: fewer moving parts
The Model 267 design permits operation at extreme angles without flooding or starving the engine. A compact fuel shut-off solenoid can be supplied to prevent the engine from dieseling."
From Zenith website.

This excerpt in particular got my attention. As well as the side draft carbs.
