Inside my K200A-2 are two gigantic 4500uF (50V) can caps, with screw terminals on the top. I'm sure this is common in all/most Kustoms from that era. My question - does a suitable replacement for these exist? I'm sure I could find some 4500uF (50V) caps, but I'm thinking more about something in the same or similar form factor?

I don't necessarily have any reason to think they're bad per se, but one measures 6536uF and the other 5340uF on my Fluke, so they're at least a bit out of spec.

I tried searching the forum, but couldn't find anything. Maybe my searching skills need improving. Thanks in advance!
