Here are the notes I compiled for my own 545.
SUGGESTED PART NUMBERS
Nominal specs from 545
In stock at Mouser 25-Mar-2021
There is about 20mm vertical space between the baseplate and the tubes.
(About 15mm on the right side due to filament wires.)
Box film caps fit just fine provided the three lower-voltage
parts are skinny so you can stack them.
Grid/Feedback/Cathode: 6.8nF 3kV, use 10nF 3kV box film, Wima MKP1W021005B00JSSD $0.89 6x15x27mm
If you allow 2kV, you can use Kemet F463DB103K2K0Z, R76UN2100SE30J or R76UI182050H4J,
or Epcos/TDK B32672L8682 or B32672L8822, or Nichicon PPB2201680KGL.
Tripler 1: 6.8nF 5kV, use 10nF 6kV box film, Wima FKP1Y021006F00KYSD $1.83 15x26x32mm
Or 6.8nF 6kV Wima FKP1Y016806D00JSSD
Or 10nF 4kV Wima FKP1X021006F00KSSD
Or 6.8nV 4kV Wima FKP1X016806D00JJ00
Or 10nF 6kV Z5U ceramic, Vishay 564R60GAS10, $5.86 ouch
Tripler 2/3: 470pF 10kV, use 1nF 15kV Z5U ceramic, Vishay/Roederstein HVCC153Y6P102MEAX $2.44 8x15mm
Or 1nF 7.5kV Z5U, Vishay 564R75GAD10 $1.90
Or take your chances with Chinese sellers at eBay. I've
seen great parts and crap, and there are no specs.
PLACEMENT/ASSEMBLY
Between the two rows of ceramic strips except as noted.
On the left, place Grid flat with leads facing left.
On top of Grid, place Feedback with leads facing right.
Place the feedback resistor string to the right of Feedback.
On top of Feedback, place Cathode flat with leads facing right.
Near the upper right, place T1 flat with leads facing left.
Above the upper right strips, hang T3 vertically.
Below the lower right strips, hang T2 at an angle, head down/leads up,
avoiding the ground lug and straddling the filament wires.
Grid/Feedback/Cathode caps that are short enough to lie on their
backs can be installed that way. The baseplate is 70mm wide.
T1 is 26mm + 3mm for wire bends. The feedback resistor
string is 5mm wide. That leaves 12mm per cap, which opens
up more part numbers, especially if you include 2kV.
We're still single-sourced on the tripler.

On the left, place Grid and Feedback on their backs.
Place the feedback resistor string to the right of Feedback.
To the right of that, place Cathode on its back.
Near the upper right, place T1 flat with leads facing left.
Above the upper right strips, hang T3 vertically.
Below the lower right strips, hang T2 at an angle, head down/leads up,
avoiding the ground lug and straddling the filament wires.
IN THE SECONDARY HV COMPARTMENT
Original was 15nF 3kV.
3kV:
Wima FKP1X021507C00MSSD $2.32
CDE 940C30S15K-F $3.36 axial
2.5kV:
Kemet F464BS153 $1.47
2kV:
Kemet PHE426SB5150JR06 $.83

I'd just glue it to the chassis and run wires to the strips.
