If size and cost are not an issue, why NOT rid yourself of that necessity? I stock 630 volt poly caps. I don't bother stocking lower voltages, and in fact I'd have to do more shopping around than I want to, just to find them. If there's a good reason, other than size or cost, to use lower voltage caps to replace the paper caps, let's hear it.
