[Boatanchors] Need Info On Valiant HV Filter Choke

I have a HV filter choke (P/N 22.1284) from a Johnson Valiant I/II
transmitter, and am considering using it in the HV section of a power
supply for an ART-13 WWII AM/CW transmitter. Power requirements are
1150V-1450V at approximately 300 mA. The LV section of the supply needs
to produce 400V - 450V at approximately 300mA.
I have a plate transformer which produces approximately 1650V no-load,
and I am planning to use it with a bridge consisting of microwave oven
diodes driving a choke input filter and a couple of 4 uF 2000V
oil-filled caps.
Can anyone tell me the ratings for the Valiant 22.1284 HV choke
(Inductance and Current Capacity)? Should I use it as the HV filter
choke in my supply? If the Valiant choke isn't up to the task, I have a
(much larger) UTC Special Series S33 choke rated 8 Hy at 300 mA which I
could use for the HV choke. In that case, I could use the Valiant choke
in the LV section of the power supply.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!
