I think the 175 has the same if not a very similar bolt pattern to the
old SUs.
It also has the same pattern "I believe" to the 150CDSE used on single
carb MGB/Spitfire.

This would make easy work for a MG owner, but the Sunbeam bolt patern
"2 diagnal bolts per carb" will make for some interesting adapting.

Other 150CD type carbs do not allways have the same bolt pattern as
the SV Alpine 150CDs.

I would sooner put some H 1 3/4 SU's from an MGB. They are readily
available rebuilt, there are a ton of parts available, an allready have
the 1.75 inch throttle plate.
