I have 0 of Apollo Voltage Regulators for Apollo 1260/4060 cards. They are built from quality components and are tested on a Apollo 1260 with a 68060 rev 6 at 80MHz to validate that it works.
As a bonus, a 5V+ (with GND of course) was added if you want to use a fan for example. The card is also prepared for adding a connector so you will be able to read the Thermal sensor of your 68060. I will do a example solution with a AVR (Arduino) later to show how it could work (not included).
The price I ask for this card is 9€/each + shipping (Paypal as gift).
FAQ:
Q: Why do I need a Voltage Regulator when I upgrade from 040 to 060?
A: The 060 needs only 3.3V while 040 uses 5.0V. If you connect your 060 without a Voltage Regulator you will damage your 060.
Q: Does it include an installation guide?
A: Sadly no, but the picture above shows how to install it on a Apollo 1260-card.
Q: How do I upgrade my Apollo 1240?
A: If you have the correct solderings tools/skills you can read more about it here: http://wordpress.hertell.nu/?p=474.
