Looking for idler gears for SB 13 lathe

Hello All,

I am looking for idler gears for a South Bend 13 lathe that I am converting to an align boring machine for model T and A Fords. I have raised the headstock up about 11" and need either a 5-1/2"dia. or two smaller gears with the correct pitch to be used for an idler so I may maintain the feed rates and use the quick change gearbox.

Although I hate to say this, I'd really like to find someone who is scrapping a SB 13 so I could rob the needed gears.

Since I will not be needing the tailstock and faceplate, those items could be for trade for the gear/gears in question.

Thanks

If you find a 13 in. SB I am interested in the tail stock. I have an idea, have you thought about a cog belt. Gates makes some that might work.
 
There's a SB 13 being parted out on Flea-Bay by:
