EL84 Amp - Baby Huey

I called Antek. They were very responsive and easy to deal with. Francois, you are correct. They told me that the cover sits above the top plate and does not touch it. He also said that the cover is powder coated so there would be no connection even if it touched. I asked him if I could use a nylon bolt to give myself a little more confidence. He said I could, but that it was not necessary.
Francois, do you or anyone else have any further thoughts?
Thanks
