For the short term, whichever doesn't knock/ping in your engine and is cheapest.
For the long term (decades?), I have tossed quite a few carburetor bodies from the 1930's, 1940's, and 1950's because of alcohol in the fuels. If one looks at the floor of the bowl on these units, one finds pits. After a long enough time, the pits become holes.
