Mike,
Yes indeed LBC does stand for Litte British Car.
As far as a temp gauge, cal 802-439-5815 as for Mike. He has lots of
used and NOS TR parts, and is very reasonable in terms of price.
TR4/4A's do have an electric type temp gauge, but I don't know of anyone
who has made a conversion to and electric from a capillary type.
Good luck and I hope this Helps...
