Help with AD30 PSU build

I'm building an Orange AD30 clone from tubes/trafos from a Leslie 610.

The Orange has what I consider a typical PSU with single rectifier and voltage divider to provide B+ to run the 12ax7 preamp tubes and the EL84 power amp tubes.

The Leslie has what I consider a slightly odd PSU with a combination of two secondaries in various configurations to get required voltages to run its single 12ax7 preamp and 7189 power amp tubes.

I'm planning on continuing to use the 7189's in the clone I'm making, and they're tolerant of the higher B+ from the Leslie (as thats what it was designed for).
Instead of running 332V and 326V on output tubes plate and screen, respectively...I'll be running 400V and 300V on plates and screens, respectively. Preamp and PI tubes will use the 215V rail.

Does anyone see anything glaringly wrong with my plan?
