Exactly what I did, final value ended up being 75 ohms. My brother ended up having a 30-watt Ohmite resistor, I mounted it on a piece of angle aluminum and fixed that onto the removable plate that bolts to the HV cage. B+ is now a perfect 385, while the other line is slightly high at 292 ish. I think that will be just fine.
