Technically not legal, but ask the Q&A: this is often an issue at inspection, and they may be willing to broaden the interpretation. The cylinders are functionally equivalent, as long as you don't take advantage of the different back end of the cylinder on the D models (they have no clevis, and the port is centred on the axis of the body).

It might be unfair to those teams who use the specified cylinders, since they weigh more than the same size D model, to use that example.
