Welcome to the Phorum!!  Here's a link you will want to bookmark.  It has a lot of info on the way those block caps are wired and what the values are.   

The second page lists the block caps that were discontinued and what the new cap number is.  It also shows the wiring configuration.  I suggest restuffing them.  Morzh from this phorum has a great thread showing how to do this here 
Cheers,
Bob
