Thanks for the encouragement. As it sits I have a 12 mfd and a 16 mfd connected negative to each end of the candleohm resistor. 

I have the positives connected to lugs 2 and 4 of the terminal strip - counting from the top with the chassis lying on its back. 


I connected the positive of 20 mfd cap to pin 8 of the 5Y3 with the negative just alligator clipped to the chassis.

All I’m getting is a buzzing noise. I’m just going to think about this for the work week and try again. There’s something I’m missing about the 5Y3 setup.
