A bit off topic question

[Randy Kaeding]

Aatos:

According to the tube specification sheets, both tubes must be mounted
vertically, either right-side-up or upside-down. In short, the answer is
no--they should not be mounted horizontally.

Hello!

Does anyone knows based to experience,if 3-500Z
or equivalents including 4-400A,could installed in horisontal positions
securely without fear of future problems.
I am planning to homebrew one tube small boxed tiny amplifier for about
600Watts output,and I should like to know that surely before going on in the
project.
