Can I put EL34 tubes in my 6505+ without any modification other than a bias adjustment? Yes, I know peavey makes a 6534+ but i do not own that amp and telling me to get on isn't helping me out.

The EL34 has a higher heater current than the 6L6 but there's a good chance the mains transformer can cope. You will need to alter the bias but other than these two factors it should work.
