Plug & Play- 5R4. About same voltage drop as 5Y3 due to not using near max rated current. GZ34 & 5V4G will raise high voltage to tube plates. You may need to set EL34 bias higher. The 6N3 have cathode bias thus will self adjust to a higher bias with higher voltage.
Another rectifier is a type 80 with four pin to octal base adapter. I like RCA 5Y3GT rectifiers. So did Jeff Korneff who is a premier SE amp builder.
