I have a Matthews 10 x 30 metal lathe and I'm looking for a GOOD collect chuck with a MT4 shank and collet set so I can
turn threads without having the hassle of gear setup and changes. Also need a Die holder with MT2 shank.
There seems to be all sorts out there but, I'm just not sure which (without paying $300 - $500 for one what
would be considered GOOD to Very Good (accurate and true in they're machining). Any advice as to one of these?

Die holder: https://www.littlemachineshop.com/products/product_view.php?ProductID=2314&category=
Rick Herrell makes an adapter to fit larger dies: https://www.penturners.org/threads/custom-made-penturning-tools-accessories.92501/

I looked at the specs and I don't know exactly how the chuck mount system is defined, an ER32, ER 40, OR ER 50 Compatible system will be able to grip your parts while reducing marring over other methods. I would also talk to @rherrell I believe he has a PM.
Thank you sir, and I did see the die holder LMS has, good price and I had forgotten about it. Must write it down to remember I reckon. LOL!
