Thanks for reading, and let me know what you got.
If you dont get any bites on here, at least for the Mississippi S&S Firearms carries most of these parts. I built a Harpers Ferry Type 4 (also known as a Type E for the NSSA) modified Mississippi and will be using it this weekend at the Cockade shoot. Sounds to me like you are trying to build a Harpers Ferry Type 5 (also known as a Type F for the NSSA) (if your rear sight is the later M1855 3 Leaf sight used on the later M1861)
