I know the Apollo 4060 doesn't have a great reputation for reliability but when working I've found it to be excellent (except the SCSI port is very slow on my SCSI2SD).

Hello, great to hear that. Just remember the board is precious and overall refurbish would be recommended. I understand you that it is very precious and you are protective to it for sending it out. Also been there but I am glad I refurbished my 1200's. I still stand by that Retropassion is great and also Ian is great, since you are in UK. You can still get chipset but is getting more expensive and rarer.
I checked Retropassion(besides my own great experience with them) on forums and I can only find personal arguments between them and Jpor. This is not objective anymore and looks more personal and should be ignored.
