It turns out that the drawings Rod Kent had were from Group 44 for bigger spindles and bearings to cure the spindle flex problem. The bigger bearings required a bigger hub but it mounted stock rotor

A couple of people mentioned the number of speeds in a TR box referencing that 4 speed + OD = 6 or 7 speeds. Unfortunately, SCCA never recognized the OD as "speeds" until sometime in the 90's. They h

The SCCA vintage rules beyond safety are mostly up to the Region. There are several GCRs included in the Vintage GCR. I think they are 1962, 1967-68, and 1972. I don't have one here but they are very
