Interesting question. A Dutch friend of mine used to have B20 F.I. engine that had a single Stromberg fitted. It was an engine that had been swapped into several cars. Reckoned to be over 350k miles. I rode in a latish 2 door Amazon with it fitted and it cruised happily at 90 in OD. We were late for the ferry. The loss of a second carb generally only felt at the top end and I submit that most of us rarely go above 5k rpm in "normal" driving. Not having to fiddle with twin carbs is a bonus!
