Chris -

You need a 32K X 8 CMOS static ram - -try Hitachi 62256LP-12.  They
can be purchased from Microchips ? Unlimited ph: 918-267-4961 at about
$12 each, but you can shop around and probably get a better price.  I have
done the retrofit and it significantly improves the performance.

Hope this helps.
