In Reply to: A final (I hope) question about main-PS (600VDC) caps for my Frankensteins posted by jeffreybehr on April 20, 2014 at 19:05:05:
ElCon has MANY metallized 'propylene hi-Voltage caps available. After some research, I'm considering the UP2 and UP37 series of 600VDC caps. See

and
http://www.ecicaps.com/pdf/capacitors/UP37_full.pdf
The UP22s--radial leads--are available in 40-, 55-, and 65uF, while the UP37 is 30uF only but it's rather small. I've e-mailed their sales company, asking if they're at all magnetic, what material they use for end-spray, and prices. We'll see.
FWIW, there's plenty of space inside the amps for any of these PS caps and bypasses. I'm likely to start with some amount of capacitance around 150uF, and it'll be easy to add more.
