You are going to be running around 28 Watts out of a maximum of 35 to 40 watts. If you run through a set of tubes in less than 5 years, you might want to add 100 ohms to the end of your cathode resistor.Remember the voltage the tube sees subtracts the cathode voltage. 425 - 80 = 345 volts (I am assuming a 1K cathode resistor, a bit higher voltage if lower resistance).
