I have heard there are some tubes that use plate caps that are basically
the same as a 6L6.
The only readon I want to use something like this is because of the design
of the output transformer
I have. The B+ connection is on the bottom, underside of the chassis, and
the plate connection is on the top.

807


Yes, because the 807 is literally the 6L6 in a different 'package'.

(The 5B254/M was made in Britain as a so-called "miniature 807", but it
must be extremely rare in the USA.)
