There was a big shakeup in the SCCA when they merged with the California Sports Car Club and the Cal Clubs production car regulations. I was in charge of that portion of the merger for the Cal Club. That is when the SCCA went to performance classes instead of displacement classes.   Things changed a bunch, so you might check those dates pretty carefully. Before the Cal Club rules it was a factory option list that was allowed, but after it was a on a direct annual homologation paper listing all the pieces for the car and not necessarily an option list. Only those options okayed by the competition committee were allowed.

I tried not to learn too much about the rules, so I wouldn't knowingly 
cheat.  I believe CVAR group 4 is supposed to follow the 1961 GCR (if I 
remember correctly).  Apparently, tube shocks would be ok for a TR4, but 
not for a TR3.

You just can't mix and match different allowable specs from various GCR years to cherry pick what you want. CVAR allows SCCA prepared cars up to 1972 GCR, with that year as the default if you don't have the appropriate year GCR..
