.....with an NOS Briggs 5hp Flattie, would you want the Flo-Jet equipped, or the Pulsa-Jet Equipped Engine? Just for an all-around General Use Engine.
If You Could Have Your Pick.......

So, one isn't more desired than the other? Maybe I should wait on Brian Carlson's reply.

Maybe I should ask it a different way. No matter WHAT it's gonna be used for, which one is most desired, and why?

Well you can count on Brian's reply to be in agreeance or very close to flattops. Understand he and Brian along with a few others are the TOP engine junkies on this forum. I Guarantee you can take anything Mr. Flattop 1 says to the bank. Take a seat you may learn something.

Wow, I didn't realize I was in this much demand....LOL
Sorry guys, I only drink coffee in the mornings.
Application - that's what it's all about.
I prefer pulsa-jet carbs for simplicity.
Float style carbs work fine until you get on a rough surface, get dirt in the fuel, or get bad fuel (inlet needle/floats sticking, etc.)
As far as value...it's in the eye of the beholder.
I build race engines, so the float style or flo-jet would be of little value to me at all.
To a guy using it on a log splitter, it would be worth as much or more than the pulsa-jet since you can use a larger fuel tank with them too.

"Give me a farm boy that doesn't already know everything but wants to learn, over a tech school grad any day. I can make an engine builder out of that farm boy." More of a paraphrase than a direct quote from Earl Gaerte, but you get the point.
