Mikey,
That 0-400 rectifier winding rates to be quite satisfactory working into a hybrid bridge rectifier that uses either a 5R4 or 5Y3, depending on winding's current capability, on the vacuum side. The big forward drop in the types mentioned should put the B+ rail voltage at a nice value, working into a CLC filter.
A Hammond 166-MS should comfortably energize a 2 A. filament. Given the 115 V. primary, you might have to put 2X small resistances in series with the filament. Take the "raw" B+ from the CT, for lowest residual hum.
