By restuffing you thermally insulate the cap that might sore!y need that extra cooling by the ambient.
Acked, but the new Nichicon is much smaller than the original. I needed some way to hold it in the chassis. I've seen some pictures on AudioKarma where some guys put the newer caps in plastic pipe so the original clamps may still be used, but leaves the top and bottom exposed to the ambient air. Perhaps that will be a consideration for the next time?
