Have you checked out McHenry MCH-56 ? [Used to be MCH-6 ].They fit most Rivarossi tenders,they just snap right in, no work required.I don't know if Heisler has same coupler pocket as the standard Rivarossi tenders, but it probably does.

Go to www.kadee.com/conv/list.htm for the KD.
If you don't understand it or can't get further help here go to www.kadee.com scroll down to Company infor and click on e-mail and up pops
KD's E-Mail form.
State your questions and address it to Sam Clark,conversion coupler specialist and he should answer you within a day, thats what he gets paid for.
There is also a conversion list in the New Walthers reference book.
I'm not familar with this style, but the chart says 32BM for a two truck.

I have an HO Rivarossi 2-truck Heisler (1568). I want to convert it to Kadee couplers. Has anyone done this to this loco? Which Kadee number should I use? Any difficulties I should know about before I begin? Any other advice?
Thanks,
George in New Castle, PA
