Source for Plexi-style PT?

Source for Plexi-style PT?
I'm currently building a 50-watt plexi clone and I need a suitable power transformer. I already have:  
 
* Obsolete Electronics Plexi-50 OT  
* M&G PTP board  
* Drake choke (for Marshall reissues)  
 
 
Would a Hammond PT be a good choice? It's been suggested that I avoid the Drake-Marshall reissue PT. Would either of these Hammond PT's be suitable?  
 
* 273BX. 350-0-350, 175 ma., 6.3V @ 5A filament.  
* 272JX. 300-0-300, 250 ma., 6.3V @ 8A filament.  
 
I plan on going with the usual setup: (2) EL34's, (3) 12AX7A's, and a solid state rectifier.  
 
Thank you.
