Both amps work great. I wish the idea behind the SB230 could have been

There is no reason one could not take a pair of the surplus GI7B, remove the
finned radiators (nut and a couple of washers), and attach a big finned heatsink like the SB230 had. The anodes are grounded and the heaters are run off a well isolated transformer. Drive is transformer coupled as well. It will cost a little more than doing things the 'conventional' way, but for no fan, it's probably worth
the trouble.
