T. Burrow and M.B. Emeneau "A Dravidian Etymological Dictionary",
Oxford 1961 is full of material, but not always arranged
historically. The bibliography of course is dated. They do not
reconstruct proto-forms in the various entries, but there is a table
of correspondences. There is probably a lot of research by Indian
scholars; have you tried searching google.com? Or look for an author
named (IIRC) Navapillai.
