KT66 clearance issue (build now complete)
I'm using a Mojo chassis and MC trannys, the PT is bigger than what the chassis was punched for so I had to make some adjustments. After fitting everything together and moving both trannys, I am only able to get about 2-2.5mm clearance between the tubes and the transformers.(See pic.) Will there be any issues having the KT66s this close to the trannys?

That does not look like a MetroAmp 45 kit.

As to the question though, KT66's are always a snug fit and your situation isn't uncommon. No problems in any amp I've ever built with KT66's.

Just finished her, it sounds amazing so the proximity of the KT66s to the transformers is definitely a non issue. Thanks for the help. Here are some gut shots.
