Moss used to carry a TR4 badge bar, years back. I have never seen anyone offer a TR4A badge bar. Yes, they are different - the TR4A carries its overriders at the most outside position, while the TR4

Um, no. TR3 is 83. 86 became available in the TR3B range, was standard with 4/4A. 87 is the legal SCCA limit (.040 over). _______________________________________________ Fot mailing list Fot@autox.t
