The tube is an odd (by today) size. I doubt you will find tuning. On one of mine, I went to 3/8". The original I believe is 7/16" diameter

Hi Brad

Give Frank von Rosensteil a try I believe he has them avail NOS

I have made some using 1/2" steel tubing and fittings avail from NAPA but the radius of one of the bends requires a special "jig" :wink:

Hope this helps
