I am thinking about giving the vta70 board a second chance when I get around to putting back together a basket case st70 that I inherited. I'll try the 12bh7's/E80CC combo. I just have to figure out how to paint the transformers without going through too much hassle.
I hope you're tubes made it okay and if not that any that broke aren't the good ones.

I managed to re-paint my 70 trnsfrmrs with engine paint without removing them from the chassis, with a combination of removing end bell bolts and masking the chassis mounts. Took some creative masking and spraying, but I think overall it came out looking pretty good, and a huge step up from the ratty original.
that's great. did you do anything special to remove the rust on top of the laminations or just paint over it?
