With the 80 pulled, are all other tubes in?
They will very well through filaments amount to 40W.
With all the tubes in, and the speaker connected you will have the draw on the order of 100W.
Pull push-pull output tubes, see if your power drops and how much.
Your power transformer is likely OK, else you would not have that power draw only with the 80 in.
Also see the voltages, if they reasonably matched with the expected ones, corrected for whatever meter you use (a modern DMM will show higher values).

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
