Great way to add Timber
Easy way to add a few more games in my Tapper cabinet

Neat kit for Tapper! Nice to be able to play Timber again.
This is a great kit for an original Tapper machine. It's got Root Beer Tapper and Simpsons Tapper too.
This thing also plays Timber which is cool because the left/right Timber stick has been mapped to the single-pull tap so that your axe always swings in the direction you're facing. Neat! It's almost more intuitive than the original Timber controls.
The kit's daughter cards fit *tight* -- I mean real tight -- so be ginger when plugging them in. Other than that, the order of the 3-board sandwich will change once the kit is installed so be prepared.

Z80 8-Bit Microprocessor (40-Pin CPU) The Z80 is a classic 8-bit microprocessor widely used in arcade machines from the late 1970s through the 1980s. This processor served as the main CPU in many arcade PCBs, executing game code, processing player inputs, and coordinating communication with memory, sound hardware, and video circuitry. The Z80 became one of the most popular processors in arcade hardware due to its reliability and expanded instruction set compared to earlier CPUs. Because of its widespread use, the Z80 is commonly found in a variety of classic arcade games and remains an essential component when repairing or restoring vintage arcade boards. This processor uses a standard 40-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) and installs directly into a compatible socket on the arcade PCB. Replacing a faulty CPU can often resolve boot failures, lockups, or other operational issues in aging arcade hardware. Key Features Z80 8-bit microprocessor Standard 40-pin DIP package Common CPU used in many classic arcade PCBs Handles core game logic, timing, and system control Ideal for arcade PCB troubleshooting, repair, and restoration Used In Arcade Games Such As Donkey Kong Galaga Donkey Kong Jr. Frogger Galaxian Dig Dug Xevious …and many other classic arcade titles Installation Notes Installs into a standard 40-pin DIP socket on compatible arcade PCBs Ensure correct notch orientation when installing the CPU Recommended for technicians performing arcade board repair or restoration *Manufacturer brands or markings may vary.
40-Pin Socket Specifications This 40-pin DIP socket is designed for reliable installation of integrated circuits and arcade daughter boards that use a standard 40-pin layout. Using a socket allows the chip or module to be easily removed or replaced without soldering directly to the PCB, helping protect the board during upgrades, repairs, or troubleshooting. Pin Pitch: 2.54 mm (0.100″) standard DIP spacing Total Pins: 40 pins arranged in two rows (2×20) Mounting Type: Through-hole (THT) for secure soldered installation Compatibility: Designed for standard 40-pin DIP integrated circuits and modules Installation Benefit: Allows ICs to be inserted or removed without repeated soldering Use Case: Ideal for arcade PCB upgrades, ROM installations, and repair work The standard 2.54 mm (0.100″) pin spacing matches the layout used on most classic arcade PCBs and DIP integrated circuits. Once soldered to the board, the socket provides a stable connection while allowing the chip to be safely inserted and removed when needed.
