Scott,
I got the seat springs for my TR3 from Moss through The BPC. They were
stiffer and higher than the originals, but I attributed a lot of that to the
fact the the originals had pretty much rusted away. The higher part was
fine by me since both the wife and I are on the shorter side of average....
ok, so we are vertically challenged. I would prefer a little more of "sink
in" than "sit on" kind of seat but I figured over time they might settle in
more. It didn't occur to me to count coils, so I can't tell you what if any
difference there was. Overall, I'm pretty happy with them.
Bob
