Actually all that work "under the hood" will probably pay off literally. A musician colleague has an older Twin Reverb which was on casters and at a gig several years ago, using the tilt-back legs, it fell over and crashed and died. Since I've had my TRR open maybe 20 times in the last years, there's a better than average chance I can successfully troubleshoot that sucker.

One very powerful amp! :D

It sounds so cool to say that just when idling, the amp is using 130 watts of power. 8)

Like a solid-lifter 454 putting out 200 HP just turning the flywheel over.
