This may seem like I'm insulting your intelligence, but did you make sure to check the continuity between the transistors and the chassis? Did you install mica insulators between the xsistors and the chassis?
Another thing you might want to do, if you've done the above, is check continuity before AND after you screw the xsistors down. I've had transistors that checked out fine before I screwed them down, only to find out that the sockets were bad. Much gnashing of teeth and swearing followed :)
