Over rate by 100% with ripple current?
GM70 draws 3amps, transformer rated for almost 3times that amount

Reduce the RMS rating by at least 50%, when BIG cap. I/P filters are employed. The I 2 R heating in the winding can get nasty.
Hammond has been known, on occasion, to be "creative" in their published ratings.
BTW, "singing" is a well known problem, when choke I/P filtration is employed. Sometimes, a "fudge factor" cap. will control that troublesome "singing".

No magic solution other than mechanical isolation, vice grips
I would imagine the core would be much larger and may not fit.
Check AnTek's toriodal stuff out. The prices can't be beat. You can order with adequate VA headroom to easily support cap. I/P filtration. The $64 question, as you stated, is will the buggers fit.
