At this point with all the fuse blowing that's been going on I would confirm that it's not a shorted secondary in the power transformer that's responsible for blowing the fuses!

To do this on the 2 big filter cans disconnect the red and green wires and turn the amp , does the fuse hold?

Also note the the heat sink compound used on both sides of the output Transistors mica insulator should only be a thin film, excess compound wil impead heat transfer into the chassis.
