EL-37's ???

After finally taking a good look at the chassis tube markings (thanks to my reading glasses) on a piar of Fisher 100 mono amps i noticed that EL37 is silkscreened near the sockets, so after going to Duncanamps data site i noticed that the heater current draw is more like the KT-66 1.4 for the EL37, 1.25 for the KT-66, but the EL37 has a plate voltage of 400Vlike a 6l6G! , while the KT66 is 500V, so as far as the current draw would i be able to use KT-66' tubes? If so then there would be less output then what a KT66 would normally put out with 500V to the plates, since it would most likely only see 400V fom use in the Fisher 100 amps which are designed around the EL37? And if im correct, since the amps run 400 v to the plates then i can safely use 6l6G cokes?? and just about any 6l6 tube out there??.
