You will also need a choke to replace L1. It is probably not critical value wise, since, if I am reading the schematic correctly, this set utilizes a 400 mFd capacitor input filter (!?). I think this is probably an error since it would exceed the 80 rectifier tubes rating by a huge amount. 4 mfd would be more typical. I would look for something on the order of 20-40 henrys @ 30-50 ma. Someone else may have better information for you on this. If it were me I would put a 10K adjustable wire wound in series with the choke and adjust it for 220 volts on the plate of the 6C5.
It looks like the audio output transformer is powered through the field coil... I'd probably look for a choke rated for 150mA or more. Don't want to smoke the choke with excessive current.
