There are two boards that I know of that would suit your needs.  The
first is the MCP501 from:

     Transtech Systems Ltd.
     Unit 17, Wye Estate
     London Road,
     High Wycombe
     Buckinghamshire
     England HP11 1LH
     ph.  (+44) 494 464303
     Fax: (+44) 494 463686

This is a 6U board with a VME I/F which can hold up to 8 TRAMS (i.e. 8
T800 transputers each with 1 Mbyte of RAM).

The other board is the Inmos B014 board.  This also has 8 TRAM slots and is
similar in specification to the MCP501.
