Hi, I originally started with  10uf 650V and they blew as well, so on to the 450v.    
I have not measured voltage across the cap as I don't want to power it on again until I find the source.
I did remove the two resistors( 250k,500ohm) from the circuit before I measured and have not replaced them yet

As suggested, I measured resistance in the following places and here are results.

Filament of 80  (6&7)--->CenterTap of 9&10  = 0
Center Tap of 9&10 (-Icon_cool  ---> Chassis  = 307k
Plate of 80  9&10 --->Chassis  = 521 and 506k
Center Tap of (3&4)  (5) --->Chassis  = 0
Filament of 80  (6&7)----Chassis  = 0  ( 10uf EL cap attaches here)
Filament  (3 & 4) ---Chassis  = 3 & 6k

Speaker
Green  to White  = 0.441k
Green to Stripe  = 1.600k
White to Stripe  = 1.160k
