To Roman's suggestion, this works well. For the sake of your speakers and DSP chain, I'd add a [clip~ -1 1] to the end of that to be safe, and place that combo both right before the [delwrite~ dub] and on the output stream.
For the sake of maximum dub, use a [vd~] instead of a [delread~] and slowly apply modulation to the base index delay amount. Say, 500ms +/- 50 by modulating the base amount either with a periodic function or [lop~] filtered [noise~]. I've yet to try this, but in my head it seems dubby.

But one problem in Pd is that delay lines and filters tend to "blow up" instead of saturate like the old school gear.
Good point. Real tape delays cannot blow up. Have you tried to put a tanh function in the feedback loop? Haven't tried myself, but I could imagine that it'll work.
