I'm running one; I like it quite a bit.  It's your "poor man's supercharger".

Unfortunately, I do not know of any for sale at the moment.

If you plan on doing a lot of highway driving, you'll hate it.  In 5th gear, imagine your speedo needle at the same attitude as your tach needle.  If you do a lot of city driving, it's great.  My IC has this from the factory.

yep, In fact mine is out and on the bench as we speak -so t speak. Mine whins ring and pinion problems, had been for a long time. I pulled it because it has been leaking. They're hard to find but I,ve found a couple--condition unknown--I'm looking into having mine rebuilt by a local guy.
Lord bless
