You also need to make the brackets to hang the tanks off of the top of the chassis from along with some type of shock mounting and the tank needs to be mounted such that it's output end is as far away from the power transformer as possible., and in light of that need a short style 9" three spring type tank would be what I would use.

Where would you put the level control for the reverb?

The K100-2 amps which had reverb and Tremolo gave up there second channel so as to have room for these controls and circuits, and this with SS circuits working things, if your going with a tube driven set up then that high voltage power supply itself eats up room .

If you where going for a tube driven reverb circuit then I would make tits power supply separate from the amp and feed filiment voltage a DC voltage into a 4 pin male XLR jack mounted on into the rear of the K100.
For tube stuff you can buy premade tag boards with two 9 pin tube sockets already on them and then you can mount that to Aluminum 6/32" standoffs from the chassis.
