2265B Restoration Questions

Surprisingly there's not a lot of info on this receiver in search.

I'm doing a recap on a 2265B. The game plan is to use Silmic II wherever possible and Wima films for the smaller values. I welcome any comments. Based on what I read, this is a brighter amp and would benefit from some warmth, which according to some, the SIlmics will provide.

A few questions:

1) Assuming I don't mind recapping in the future and I'm not driving the amp too hard, is there anywhere where I'm better off with a 105 degree cap?

2) Are there any semiconductors that should be changed while I'm in there?

3) Any other words of wisdom?
 
I follow what seems to be conventional wisdom on medium and higher powered receivers. There is a lot of advice to use 105 degree caps on powers supplies in those receivers. Nichicon PW series is often recommended.
