I rebuilt the bakelite blocks which was a breeze only needing a hair dryer and a stiff wire i didn't refill the blocks with anything though a few blocks had broken terminal lugs which is to be expected.
The bypass can or filter condenser can as Philco calls it i bundled the caps together with a zip tie twisted the grounded end to where it forms a solid mechanical connection and soldered it together. The zip tie acted like a spacer giving it a tight yet snug fit inside the can.
I reused the old leads since they where still good i stripped and formed a tight mechanical connection and soldered them to the new components and used heat shrink tubing to tidy them and to keep from developing any shorts.
