Sometimes weak output tubes can do goofy things, like the plates turn red. Did you try the new tubes before the mod? Also, remember, a tube (or set) can test good on a tester, but when the real current and voltages hit it, it cant keep up. I'm sure you know this but I thought I would mention it anyway. Food for thought...
