Hi Scottie
Welcome!
Using 34G wire shouldn't be a problem at all. The key is to make sure you have enough turns if you don't the osc won't oscillate across the whole band. If memory serves me it won't oscillate at the low end of the band. The resistance the the IF coils shouldn't be a problem either as long as they peak at the IF frequency. With them not tuned on frequency it is very likely that it will break into oscillation.
Good luck
Terry

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
