    Not sure when they were introduced. I have installed a couple of their reeds so far. Great bottom and extra kick in middle to top. I may have extra one here.

    Found add showing mossbarger reed block for a 1974 250 mag and 75-77 go models . Looks like they were for using the original Bing carb . Other than carb mounts they look similar .
