Dave:

The part number for the standard coupler is;

Standard Type 4 Pair (Enough for 4 Cars)
Walthers Part # 920-6001, p. 239 Walthers 2012 HO Scale Reference
HO scale, $6.98, currently in stock at Walthers

They are corrently shown as on sale @ $3.98 for four pair. I have been using 
them (and the short shank variation) for several years. I have usually had to 
ream the center mounting holes with a 2-56 clearance drill for 2-56 machine 
screws, although I suppose 1-72 screws would work if the holes in Ace 
conversions would hold a 1-72 thread. I've never tried that.

Also, the coupler boxes are too wide for  the side mounting holes to line up 
with the alignment bosses on Ace conversions. I usually remove these flush with 
the coupler mounting surface.
