Phil, 

The 8660 is the equivalent to the 4CX1500B,
The driver tubes are 8122 I found out.

Again, if I drive a 8171 to not more then 1,5KW output ever,
it should be tuned for that power, not for 20KW

No, there is only one pair of driver tubes in class A.

Bigger is usually mo bettah! I over-engineer everything.
