    I would put a 200 ohm  1 watt or something close resistor in series with the rectifier output. Either + or -. This should give you the voltage drop that you need. The early rectifiers pre mid 60s had high internal resistance compared with their silicon counterparts so an external resistor needs to be added when replacing them.
