If you can find some 5933 industrial versions of the 807 they are designed
for horizontal mounting and operation. The poor old 807 sags under gravity
and eventually shorts out. It may still be easier to find these than to
retrofit the modulator driver board in that transmitter.

If you must run a BC-1G as a full time main you  might strongly consider 
changing 
the driver board orientations from  vertical to horizontal.

Two pair of angle brackets, two eight inch  diameter condenser fans, and the
807's will have a chance IF you can find  some NOS JAN 807's.

Remember that the RF driver is the weak point of  the BC-1T/G design. It 
needs 
every advantage it can get.
