Assuming the CFM is the same, does anyone think that a carb w/ the annular discharge boosters would get better mpg than a Carter/Edelbrock carb? If so by how much, as in is it worth the swap.

They are all a crap shoot unless you can tune them correctly. It is amazing what a wideband will tell you about your tune. You can tune w/o one. It just takes longer.
