Modern substitutions will work fine. The new
capacitors are MUCH smaller in physical size than the
originals and are much closer in tolerance (like +/-
20%) than the originals which were -50% / + 80%. You
can mount two electrolytic capacitors under the
chassis for the dual can and still have plenty of
room.
You don't need the "computer grade" or +/- 10%
capacitors. The +/- 20% capacitors are plenty "good
enough" and cost lest than 1/2 of what the +/- 10%
capacitors cost.
I get my electrolytic capacitors from Mouser (
http://www.mouser.com ) and use the least expensive
versions. Haven't had a single problem with them.
Mouser is usually a fair amount cheaper than most
other sources and they don't have a minimum order
requirement for the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
They do have a minimum order for countries other than
those three.

I'm particularly looking for the 40 ufd, 450 wvdc, the
dual 20-20 ufd, 150 wvdc and the 20 ufd, 350 wvdc capacitors.
