phlogiston,

i just looked up the 35Z5GT in the tube manual, it says the input filter should be 40mfd, which is exactly where they have it on the schematic.....hmmmm. so maybe i did myself a favor by not even looking at the chassis before i ordered parts, ill just drop the correct caps in there per the schematic and see how it goes!

terry,
merry christmas to you as well, and thanks to both you guys for responding so quickly! im going to keep the old multisection in there, and just undo the leads going to it underneath, then stuff my new electrolytics under the chassis as need be. that way i can retain the original look of the radio and not have to worry too much about finding just the right size or value of can cap.

thanks again to both of you for your help! i really appreciate it!
