Agree, keep the 5Y3. It's a reliable tube, and maybe that's why there are still plenty of 'em around.

If there is plenty of space you could always staple a scrap of attic insulation on the inside top of cabinet to reduce heat. Yup, just the opposite of the normal usage. Anyway a little fan does no harm.
