Thanks. This not only clears up where to place the parts, but is a clear explanation of what's happening in the circuit. I don't see the "next diagram" you mention but I can figure out this. I'll assume chassis ground means I can just solder the ground lead of the 8mfd cap to the chassis. Previously I think there was a 20mfd cap there that had the ground connected to the candleohm ??? Not sure why. The radio seems to work well with good volume so I suspect the candleohm is OK. I have the instructions somewhere for rebuilding this. It involves sourcing some resistors I don't happen to have on hand right now.
I think, if you are ok with this, when I get this done I may make a youtube video that explains this and shows what goes where with your diagram. I suspect that this 5Y3 substitution may be common. The good news in this is I also have a 41-255 with the original 84 tube in it - so this should work the same for that.
