904 lockup vs non lockup

-
The mid 70's are the best 999's with the 5 clutch front drum and non lockup.
Is it your opinion that a 70,s 999 is better because it is non lockup, or for some other reason? A 1980,s is a 999 with lockup, but I believe it has better(stronger internals) than the earlier 999. I just wondered if you could tell me why you feel a 70,s is better. The 1980,s version uses 4 pinion steel planetaries.
 
The mid 70's has 4 pinion steel planetaries.
It is the best if you need a non lockup 999.
If you need a lockup 999 then go with the 80's and up.

Agreed if you can find a 1970,s 999. The lockup models are everywhere, and it's not much work to get rid of the lockup feature.
