First,not only is the output transformer not suited for the 6P3Se,you also don't have enough drive or B+ to make the 6P3Se develop its power and lower distortion numbers. Typically, if you run a 6L6gc at 425vdc loading with a 6.6k PP impedance,you still need about 90v of drive to bring that tube to full power.
You are starving the tube in that 7355 circuit and it's no different than someone sticking a KT120 in a KT88 circuit..It will work but it will not make anymore power and distortion will typically be higher because the tube isn't running correctly.
