Hi Guys,

Will these Su's fit my 1968 Triumph Vitesse 2 litre Mk1 with Stromberg cd150's??

I think you need a different manifold, but I'm not too sure.

Haha Dont put idea's into my head Mr Hammond!!!!  ;D ;D

On a more serious note,

It looks as if it come with a pair of manifold adaptors in the pics?

You need Dolomite Sprint carbs, the ones with the shorter dashpots or you won't get enough clearance to close the bonnet.

Yes but why? Strombergs stay in tune much better than SU's.

I would agree with Richard, Why...
    apart from SU needles are more available  ( should you ever need something away from spec) the Strom is a much better engineered bit of kit. and will have  better  economy .
