I'm about 3/4 of the way into recapping.... there are 4 big black Philco caps - .006MFD @400V - they look a bit more substantial than the others in the set and I'm not absolutely sure I've run into these before.... Are these anything special??? Can I replace with garden variety mylar caps of the same value???? Thanks...
