James, thanks a TON for that useful information. The project will resume as soon as the parts arrive

For the capacitors, this is what I plan to do. I did this work on a '52 Motorola as seen in this picture. While it won't be popular to the purist, I intend to use the snot out of this set when I'm done, and to me, serviceability is the key. I have no intention of restuffing them, and letting loose caps dangle on the underside isn't really appealing......there's no real room to do an under-chassis mount in these areas.
