Here are some things I've learned, for the benefit of future lurkers:
1. The 2N3055 pass transistors are basically ideal, but if you want to upgrade them, make sure the replacements have a TO-204AA, or TO-204AE, or TO-3 package (using Digikey's parametric search). Also make sure the voltage/current rating is 60V/15A or higher, and the manufacturer is ON Semi. If you input those parameters, you'll get 19 search results, ranging in price from $5.85 (for the 2N3055) to over $15!
2. I removed resistor R15 (which ended up being 3k) and replaced it with a 2.2k, which increased the peak current output from 4.7A to 5.5A. This proved to be a quick and viable way of increasing the current output.
3. I discovered an empty trimpot footprint on the top left corner of the board, labeled W4. This proved to be the missing W8 trimpot, according to the schematic. At first I installed a 50k trimpot in this location (which was the ideal value), but then I decided to remove it, because I was worried about unnecessarily coupling ground noise to the op amp.
