I recall seeing some postings on comp.sys.apple2 from around 1990 that

emulation mode).

65816s are a bit on the scarce side. There are a couple of 65C02s that
do work with the II+ though. The GTE and the Rockwell.

AAAAAAAAAK, I was thinking 65802. A 65816 won't work in a II+ without an adapter which would effectively turn it into a 65802. 65802s are hard to find. The Rockwell and GTE 65C02 are fairly easy to come by.
