Default Replacement Tuners for 1936(?) Epi Olympic

The tuners on my Olympic are crap. Does anyone know the spec for a drop-in replacement, or have a specific model recommendation? I don't want to do any modifications unless it's absolutely necessary.
TIA

Stewart-McDonald Golden Age reproductions(3-on-a-plate, or 3 individual per side) have usually been drop in replacements for me, on my vintage Epis.

If you can, you should confirm(with a dial indicator or micrometer) that the shaft diameter on the originals matches the shaft diameter of the StewMac repros.
