Hope they fit

Fifteen mm longer, but maybe they can just lay on top of those other tiny components. Keeping the leads short is important, but that shouldn't be a problem with identical spacing, diameter. The KW leads might be appx 0.008" larger diameter (.8mm, can't find FC dia but might be .6mm), and that could cause minor difficulty depending on PCB. Don't see anything else to worry about. If 16v works, 50v might be better, will last longer. Caps don't establish supply voltage.

FC to KW should yield nice improvement. FC can be a bit sterile; KW should warm things up, maybe open it up a little. I'd like to know if higher voltage makes a difference for same model cap. Ever test for that?

C14 and C15 look like small value bypass caps. You might have a look at those when you have the board out. Could be worth a tweak.

Peace,
