I'll be watching this closely too. I have a late 50s Ampeg and an early 60s Kay to rehab, so this should be a good preview. Are you replacing all of the caps, or just the electrolytics? What about the carbon comp resistors? Some of the CC's in my amps have drifted way out of spec.

This may or may not help, but Aion has an SD-9 board with a few mods built in: https://aionfx.com/project/meteor-vintage-distortion/ I built one with the intention of modding it further to match my SD-9 with Analogman "808" mods, but I've been enjoying the wider range of tones in the stock Aion...

Going off on a tangent... Would it be reasonable to substitute a foot switch for the toggle in this build with some off-board wiring? Any volume drop between modes?

So, do vintage pedals ever get recapped? Is that even a thing?

So I have a JHS 3 Series Delay that uses the FV-1. Would this mod work on that pedal as well?
