When I bought my TR3 it had tube shocks on it.  That caused me to lose a 
point with CVAR for authenticity.  I didn't know about World Wide 
Imports, so I bought rebuilt lever shocks from Roadster Factory and sold 
the tube shocks on Ebay.  I've never had any problems and can't tell any 
difference in handling.
