I am even less impressed with el34 tubes then 7591 variety!
I want 6v6!

Sorry, you can't have 6V6s. However, adding some filament power will allow you to use 6L6s. The filament winding already present will easily feed 4X 6L6 heaters. Add a 1 A./6.3 VAC filament trafo and you can easily energize 2X 6BL8s, etc. A pentode voltage amplifier, instead of a 'X7 section, will give you the extra gain needed to drive 6L6s.
You can entertain the thought of triode wired "finals", for extra "finesse".

I was also thinking 6L6 but the extra fill tfr will be a tight fit on that chassis. I think if it were me, I'd sell it and start with an amp designed for 6V6, the Bell 3030 comes to mind.
