I am not completely sure about this, but I think that the valve set from the older King 1240 3 valve might be the same as the sousaphone valve set. I say this because the configuration of my 1241 (4 valve) valve set looked remarkably like the sousaphone setup. But I am not sure the 4th valve tubing would fit a sousaphone. However,I think that King made 4 valve sousaphones so that 4th valve setup would probably fit your horn better than the tuba configuration. At least worth checking out.
My 1¢.
