Carbs can make more power at WOT due to the intake charge cooling effect. There have been several tests on V8s over the years by various magazines and most support that a well tuned carb can make a tiny bit more power. Cold fuel has also been shown to make more power then hot fuel.
There is no question that EFI is better for drivability, gas mileage, and altitude and weather compensation but for a drag car if you tune it for the conditions a carb might make a bit more power.
