I'm now remembering that the LP275 trannies have to be bigger as they have to service twice as many output tubes. Each output tube needs it's own winding for input, thus twice as many input windings for the LP275 as the LP140. I assume the output windings must be larger to accept the signal from more on the input side. These big transformers where there are eight output tubes are complex beasts.
