According to Terry Ashley at PMMS, the late tracks should fit just fine. I would guess the early style tracks would fit the same.

They work fine. Not super easy to assemble (with my big mits) but easier than the link and length.

I really like AFV's indie link Tiger Tracks. They assemble with a simple top and bottom, and trap the pin between the halves--no fiddly little pins to insert, or separate guide teeth to glue on separately, like Model Kasten. And the guide teeth are hollow. I find they assemble most easily with old style tube cement--used sparingly, it stays where you put it, so there's no danger of capillary action drawing liquid cement into the joint and freezing it.
