Better late than never as I see you have chosen your path, but for others...
The C5/6 Upper and Lower are the exact same taper, AND when I was researching the same..... I was told by a Speedway tech that their "10 degree" reamer (as probably Coleman and others too) are not truly 10 degrees but slightly under, and ARE an exact fit ironically enough to the C5/6's slightly under 10 degree taper.... I was told by Speedway that they simply round up for advertisement simplicity, and call them "10 degree" but their techs will confirm differently if/when quized.
Cool Nova by the way!
