I'd probably focus on other circuit modifications. The output stage has *PLENTY* of NFB. Get rid of the PFB applied to the 12BH7 stage, without getting rid of the headroom delivered by the current PFB/Bootstrapping topology first...then get rid of the NFB loop. Gain should be about the same, but with stability markedly increased...LOL
Then move onto the finer details. CCS in the PI cathode circuit, axe the input 12AX7 in favour of a 12AY7, 6CG7 for the PI tube itself...and so forth. And of course the PS mods you have developed...:)
