  Greetings Mason - welcome.


   One source might be Surplus Sales of Nebraska:

(CFC) HT580200-75  200 pF  7.5 kv  6.9 amps  $21.00

or

(CFC) HT570200-15  200 pF  15 kv  15 amps    $42.00

depends on just how QRO you'll be.

  Note that these are 'doorknobs' - if your currents/peak voltages are 
less, then there are cheaper mica caps that might serve.

"(IRV) 229-203
Good ol' Johnson roller inductor.
Ceramic. Silver. The real McCoy. Only a few available."  $175 (OUCH!!!)

"(IRV) 2434
Nice ceramic core roller inductor. Shaft end has slot to mate with nylon 
quick coupling (shown below) which fits 1/2" shaft. Stand alone frame was 
removed from IRV-503178 tuners. Little or no previous use." $99  (oww...)
