Seems like 1/2 of your interstage transformer is open. This is why the plate voltage on your 71's isn't more even, one tube has no grid bias and it's causing the plate to draw more current. Just to confirm measure the resistance from each 71 grid back to the center tap of the transformer. Should see a fairly low resistance 1K or less.
