Yeah, all new electrolytics - Nichicon 105 deg, 500V caps replacing the original 450 and 350 volt can sections. Replaced the original candohm with two 10W power resistors as well and the B+ lines are all within 3 volts of schematic. My DVM locks right on and they are stable, but I'll scope them all and look for any ripple or odd noise too.

Interesting question! The grounding spring is tightly in place and overall the coating looks in good shape, however it is a little scratched where it makes contact with the tube - see attached pic. Would that be enough to cause a problem? Recommend trying to bend the spring so that it contacts in a slightly different place?
