Where to source a 3.14 diff?

Guys - just bought an 07 ZX10R engine to go in my Westy, and I need to source a 3.14 (or similar) diff. Currently I've got a 3.62, and I understand this is going to mean extremely low gearing and low top end.

Any ideas a) where I can source this and b) how much I should be paying for this?

Has anyone got one to sell???

Cheers!

Might be better to look at the freelander diff instead? I know it weighs a bit less and is low geared....

I thought the freelander diff was a 3.14? Am I mistaken?

freelander diff is a 3.21 ratio and suits the zx10 perfectly.
I'm using 205/60/13 rear tyres and it does 69 in 1st at the rev limit but will pull away from tickover without any fuss it will pull 6th gear from 25 mph again without complaint and will go over the wrong side of 130mph flatout.
