If I may provide a little Stromberg history here. The actual design of the Stromberg CD (ED. CD stands for Constant Depression) carb was started by Triumph who was paying BMC SU division a very high price for SU carbs. They were having a problem developing the carb and not infringing on SU patients. With a change of management at Triumph the CD project was sold to Stromberg to complete with a promise of a market if they got it to work.

After Stromberg managed to get a workable CD carb, Triumph lived up to its end and started using Strombergs. This great plan was somewhat derailed when BMC and Triumph merged and SU became a sister company of Triumph. At that point Triumph tried to make harmony in the family by using both Stromberg and SU on engines.

I've had Strombergs and SU and each has advantages and disadvantages with little or no difference in performance . Morgan used what ever came in on the truck that week.
