Try and post the mosfet spec sheet rather than the mouser part No.
I know they are a pain in the butt to source the correct type! i.e. the Toshiba ones I used are now obsolete and the NTE2377’s are over £15 each here in the UK.

The voltage and power dissipation look okay,you don’t want less than 600V especially if your going to use the 290paz with higher B+ and you have to take into account voltage surge when powering on which will be a lot higher than your stable B+ voltage.okay so get the spec sheet for the NTE2377 or NTE2973 and compare to see if it’s the same type.

not same but very similar in specification comparison.

Drain source voltage is 600V and 297x upto 900v
Power dissipation is low at @180Watt whereas 297x has 250watt
input/output capacitance is 1350/70 pf whereas 297x input/output capacitance is: 2900/290 pf

so power dissipation and I/0 capacitance has a lots of gap.
