OK Frank, I did do this(ordered from Sony) I did not have the part number so they sent a kit from my Sony distributor it was not packaged in a Sony bag.and the transistor is getting real hot. I was afraid it would blow the special damper diode, which is very expensive. I will let it run longer and take a chance see how long it will go?
