Hi Luke!

The parts for the ring mod are in the archives of this list. The
best transformers have a around 10K primary impedance and 2K
secondary. The DC resistance is about 600 ohms and 160ohms
respectively. Mouser has two transformers that work quite well. The
larger is part # 42TM002 and the smaller (nice for pcb mounting) is
part # 42XL002.

The Ge diodes are a little harder to find, but I'd be happy to match
a set for you free of charge. Just send me a mailing address and
I'll get them out to you.

It seemed a good idea to add a makeup amp and buffer to the output of
the RM circuit. Mine uses a TL072. The non-inverting amp has a gain
of 2 (or so...) and the output of the buffer connects to the output
through a 1K resistor for short protection.
