Check the FAQ: http://www.ionpool.net/arcade/tech/bw_vector_monitor_faq.pdf

Can't recall the current cross-reff off hand, but Mouser/DigiKey should have 
them.

Also www.gamearchive.com has a monitor info page.

Someone was selling the actual, original diodes on the list a while back. 
The benefit of the originals is they will fit in the holder and require less 
hacking.
