Oversized bushing tap for 1911

I know it's a long shot but does anyone happen to have an oversized bushing tap for stripped 1911 grip bushings? Kimber had this excellent idea of using stainless grip bushings in an aluminum frame without using any type of anti-seize.

Brownells sells a kit. A quick look at their site shows that the tap appears to be a 0.255"-60. Good luck finding that.

 

P.S. -I'm no machinist, but I assume a 1/4-60 will work and/or is the same thing.

 

I've already looked at the kit but was hoping that someone who knew someone who's cousin's wife's brother was a gunsmith might have one.
