routinely did this on the early 60 watters,8417 and KT 88, at least as long as the GE's were available. Tough damn tube.
I remember asking him about the over valued caps in the first stage. His reply was have you had any issues? I had to say no, none at all, and as a matter of fact, those GE's ran for years.
Curiously, with the advent of the commie crap, we have to toe the line concerning the ratings, and even allow for greater allowances....
Mike ended the practice when the GE plant closed down of course.He did briefly modify the units for two 5AR4's, but returned to the single GE's.
