Looking at the specs of the original transformer the primary resistance is 7600 ohms. The Edcor is 8K. My question is will the extra 400 ohms cause any major changes in tone or clarity?

No it won't.

However, do make sure that this 8000 Ohms ARE at the Voice coil impedance of the speaker.

I do not remember wht the VC impedance but if say 8000 Ohm is at the VC=8 Ohm and you have VC=4 Ohm your input impedance will be 4000 Ohms then.
