6.9 hard start

HI. I have a 84 6.9 and am needing a coolant temp switch that controls the high idle and advance timing. I have contacted the local stores and the only one they list is for the temp guage what am I doing wrong. does anyone know where I can get one besides the dealer ( I don't like dealing with the ones here local their service sucks). can I buy this on the net somewhere?
thanks.

I am sorry I haven't posted earlier it has been a fairly hectic spring. I have checked out the sight that you sent me and couldn't find anything but like I said I have been pretty busy and haven't had time to do a lot of searching.
just wanted to thank you for the reply and I will check it out further when I do get time.
Ben.
