The D-90 Source might be a good place to ask around for one.

My SIII with a 2.25 Brel MOD engine and Fairey O/D would see 65 with no problem on flat runs. I even got over 70 mph coming down hills but it was loud and not terribly comfortable. I was running 235/85/16's and a fresh Zenith carb.

I like to shift gears so I want to keep it a manual transmission. One with an overdrive gear would be nice.

PM me your number and I'll give it to a friend I have here in CT. He's been bringing in 200 and 300 kits for old Series models. He should be able to help you out.
