So here are my old tubes, 6L6GC...

I want to replace them with these, GT-6L6-GE... (will they be compatible?)

EDIT: This is a 65 Twin reissue.

The spec sheet indicates that these tubes are certified safe for use with 500 VDC at the plates......

Your TRRI has 440 VDC -- thus, these tubes will be fine. I'd recommend measuring (and adjusting, if necessary) the idle bias when you install the new bottles.
