I actually did the whole "re-stuffing" thing. It involved cutting open the
cases and cleaning out a messy tar like substance, then drilling and tapping
for brass screws, and finally soldering the capacitors in place. The cases
were reassembled with epoxy.
When I was done there was one question. Why did I do this? It was a lot of
work for little gain.
In 25 years, when these capacitors fail, I'm just gonna solder the new ones
under the chassis........
