Default Effect of cathode strapped suppresor grid?

Hi all.

A quick question about strapping the suppressor grid to the cathode instead of directly to ground. If I wanted to change the 6KD6 in the diagram for an EL84 (much easier to get), apart from the wiring on the valve base, would the tied-to-cathode suppressor grid have any effect on the operation of the circuit as shown.?

Thanks
Andrew
