You can get the 65c816 -14 PLCC chip from the Western Design Center Their
URL is http://www.wdesignc.com/
You can buy 1/2 size Oscillators from Digikey. Their URL is
http://www.digikey.com/
You can also get these Oscillators from many Electronics suppliers.
Information about Upgrading the Cache on your Transwarp is near the end of
this document.

You really should update the out of date
info in your accelerator FAQ. I invite the original poster
of the question to point their web browser to:
http://ground.isca.uiowa.edu/apple2/apple16/Hypermedia/Hypercard/
And download: TWGSupgrade.SHK (or TWGSupgrade.BSQ if you require
7-bit transfer).
Any 65C816 high speed chip manufactured today (and recently [years])
_does not_ require an upgrade to the GALs. Those were only
required with the old "Engineering" chips that WDC used to sell.
I've upgraded a TWGS card by just changing the half-size oscillator
in the corner. No GAL upgrade or ROM upgrade needed. The info
is in my Transwarp GS upgrade stack.
Also, again, your Zip GS upgrade info in the accelerator FAQ is
also in error. Not everyone needs to replace the gates there for
high speed operation. I did not need to for 13.75MHz. Matt
Portune's Zip _would not work_ WITH the replacement gates. And
my stack, ZipUpgrade.SHK and ZipUpgrade.BSQ from ground, also
shows where to get parts for upgrading without soldering the board.
Upgrading both accelerators is easy. Easier than the dated
accelerator FAQ makes it out to be.

Yes indeed. A 10MHz Transwarp GS I tested matches a 12.5MHz
Zip GS in most tasks.
