Mine was e-z.

All I had to do was toss the factory 'pipe and before-the-valves main tuning slide. Then, bend a new 'pipe for it (fitted with a "modern" receiver) running directly into the first casing. The down bow past the valve set on the back will become the new main slide...

...and if I can find a .625" bore rotor somewhere, I could schtick on a 5th valve...

...(rambling now)...

...needs a lot of other stuff done to it first (valve rebuild, etc.)...and perhaps years away from actually finishing this project.
