The 45/2A3 amp has paralleled blue Sozo's, .1uf and.022uf. I'll use .022uf Miflex PIO, copper foil and Audyn .1uf copper foil caps.

That sounds like a plan.
I'm glad you were able to see the values.
Have you changed out caps before.

Nice! What tubes? 6sl7?

Incidentally, do you modify Inspire amps? The Supratek preamp I ordered will allow me to switch between 6sn7 and 12sn7. Would it be possible to do the same for the Firebottle kt88?

Yes, I'm just tuning it to taste/personal preference.

Yeah, same here.
Between circuit changes and upgrades the inside of my amp is a mess.
I need to strip out the circuit again and start fresh.

Yes it uses 6SL7's.
Generally speaking Dennis doesn't modify or upgrade amps.
