Looking for high-res timer board

We're looking for a high-res VME timer board.
It will be stuck in a multiprocessor and will get frequent memory-mapped
reads from heavily instrumented code.  Therefore, the ideal candidate
would be something like:
	32-bit counter, accessed D32.
	No state to maintain between accesses (so I don't have to
	make the multiple processors do mutual exclusion just to
	look at the timer).

Alternatively, can anyone recommend a D32 VME prototype board
onto which we could paste our own counter circuit?

We are using the XYCOM-085 VME prototype board. I only allows 16 bit 
data accesses (A16/D16 and A24/D16) but is easy to use.
