Hmmm... your request got me to thinking... I have a complete Reynolds sousa valveset. The piston diameter is .976" and the length is 3.688". I thought the Olds 99 pistons were all gone, but checking some parts listings I discovered that the piston you need may be the same as one for a Bach 869 tuba (is that right, Joe?) and are still available from Allied. I have a loose #2 piston but that wouldn't do you any good. Also, I'm curious if many of the King, Reynolds, Olds AND Bach pistons interchanged.
I wouldn't want to get rid of one piston out of the complete valveset but might consider other parts in trade for the valveset. Whatcha got?
