I went to Interstate VW to find my R6, when looking I know I saw an R4. Lots of R3s and R5s. I need to go back and make sure I wasnt dreaming, but I bet they were used on another motor.

I looked it up after reading Everett's comment and sure enough the 4R4 was used on Types 1 and 2 in 1961. But, according to the Type 3 workshop manual, the only difference between the 4R4 and 4R6 was a redesign of the contact breaker plate, so other than for its relative rarity there's no real advantage in having one.
