It is this an old design.

If you go for the transputer. 
I would go for standard PC motherboard B004/B008 compatible and
a TRAMs to this.

This makes it possible to mix T8xx, C40, T9xxx and Alpha.

You will have more freedom to choose.

If you are interested in more information just mail me directly.
