If this is your first SSTC, I'd suggest building steve's mini-SSTC It's much simpler and tunes itself using feedback.
As for the GDT's you make those with the ferrite toroidal cores found commonly in PC PSUs. You can also find cores to wind the other inductors in there. Finding the right parts gets tough again as you have to finely tune that class-E coil by changing component values.
