175CD's.  The only identifying marks I found on the carbs however, were 
"53225F 915, and 53225R 9" around the Cap edge (4 screws) and 
"168T  / 169T" around the filter mount.  I would guess that "F" and "R"
denote the position they are supposed to be, in relation to the car.

Steve,

Measure the carb opening.  The CD150 has a 1 1/2 (1.50) inch opening where
as the 175 has a 1 3/4 (1.75) inch opening (see the pattern?)
