There are always risks when we change things in marginally stable 
systems unless you just buckle down and do everything correctly.

If I owned a 30L1 I'd use "cathode" bias and ground the grids 
normally, and add neutralization. I'd never use four 811A tubes in 
parallel without cancelling feedthrough capacitance.
