Thanks Lawrence, I think I'm OK in terms of being well within spec of the valves and the filter caps, etc. so I'll leave it for now. I've put a series resistor after the rectifier diode and when things settle down the B+ is just below the spec so I'd say it's good for now anyway. I used one of those 15W resistors in a metal housing that is bolted to the chassis for good thermal transfer so it runs much cooler than the previous version. I'll have to see about getting some of those Brimistors!
Cheers, John
