You may want to measure the bell and coil.
The main measurements you'll need are:

1)The Bell Diameter
(width across bell face)

2)THe bell rise
(place bell with face flat on ground,
then measure height the back throat
from the ground)

3) Coil width
(Width across outer coil)

4) Coil to throat width
(Widest distance from bell throat to opposite coil)

4) Coil Rise
(Lay coil flat on grond and measure the largest rise
from ground, usually at the throat connecting to the bell)

The big horn will probably need a custom case,
or maybe two cases, one for the bell and one for the coil.
