It doesn't run at full speed. It presently runs in the tens to low
hundreds of kHz.  If a Replica-1 can be run slower than normal, that
might work.  Other common 6502-based micros, such as the Apple II or
Atari 400/800 will not work at low speed due to inherent timing
requirements related to video generation and DRAM refresh.

If you wire single-stepping using the RDY line, that should work,
though it will only single-step read cycles, not write cycles.

You can't single-step the actual clock because it is dynamic logic.
