In the spirit of participation 
), I'll chime in on this one.
I use KS 200 tooling on my Bridgeport EZ Trak and love it. Just the convenience of not having to reach up and loosen/tighten a drawbar is worth it to me. I would say its faster even than a power drawbar.
Anyway, after I prchased the mill, I found a buddy of mine who had quite a bit of KS 200 tooling and was able to make a more than fair trade (as he does not use it). Since that initial aquisition, I have purchased quite a lot of tool holders on eBay at prices from about $40 for solid tool holders to $60 for AcraFlex collet type holders.
Incidently, this same freind still has (I believe) a KS 200 complete spindle, probably Bridgeport. I could check if you're interest or if suits your need.
