Hi Jonathan, first, I'll strongly recommend that you take a look at WebAssembly as a possible alternative to what you're trying to do. It'll be integrated into the web platform more and more over the coming years, and might just satisfy your needs.
That being said, you can find the Tamarin sources here: http://hg.mozilla.org/tamarin-redux I'll warn you, though: what you're trying to do is a monumental task. I'm assuming you don't want to outright replace SpiderMonkey, but add Tamarin as a runtime. At least, that's the _much_ simpler path forward: the JS engine is very heavily depended upon by the rest of the browser's platform. This much simpler path still entails a huge amount of work: you'll have to integrate the Tamarin runtime into Gecko's event loop and document processing pipeline to have bytecode loaded and executed at the right time. Then you'll have to implement all the parts (that most people would assume to be part) of the ActionScript 3 standard library that're actually implemented in the Flash Player and thus not available. After that, create bindings for the thousands of APIs the web platform includes, or at least the substantial subset you'll need to do anything useful. The problem with that is that the implementation behind many of these APIs is strictly tailored towards exposure via JS, so you'll have to make substantial changes deep inside Gecko internals for that, too. Finally, and most importantly, do note that the chances of any of this ever being accepted as patches to mozilla-central are pretty much nonexistent. You should think through possible ways of this getting into the hands of people before diving into the technical implementation.
