Why?
If you want more power, get a different amp.
The heath W50m is a wonderful amp, and for its day, quite a highly rated unit.
It may need new Caps and to have some of the Carbon Comp resistors replaced, but keep it a KT-66/6L6 Push-Pull amp
it is wonderful, and will not survive having the voltages and circuit topology changed.
Happy Listening
