Sam's is for the 6au6 IF and I think Riders schematic is for the octal IF layout. My T54, with 6au6's in IF strip, uses .03@6000.
Your pics appear to show 6au6's in the IF.
My question is: Does it matter if I use .047@6000 instead of .03@6000?

Mine is actually the 505 [T54 in the wood cabinet], 9-48 date.

Sorry I never replied, my set originally had .047 mfd @ 6000V caps so that's what I used for replacement. My set uses 6au6 but the rest of the chassis matches closer to the octal set per the sams. (I have both SAMs sets for comparison )
