questions about KIM-1, microVAX-1, and Tektronix 4319

Hi,
I recently acquired a KIM-1 which is mounted inside a wooden case. The
board is stamped with a manufacturing date of 3/78 so it was
manufactured after Commodore bought MOS technologies. I know that
Commodore used metal cases back then. Does anyone know of any third
party manufactures that made cases for the KIM-1? This wooden case I
have looks too nice to be home made.

Second question,
I also acquired a microVAX-1. However, the VT240 terminal I attached to
it does not appear to be communicating with the VAX. What should the
number of data bits, parity, etc. be set to on the VT240? I've tried
just about everything I can think of. Could I be using the wrong cable
to connect the VAX console port to the terminal? Any help would be
appreciated.

Third question,
I have a Tektronix 4319 workstation with a dead harddrive. Does any one
know what maximum size SCSI drive I can connect to it?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
