Progress continues, finished blocks 9 and 26. I wonder for caps 23 and 24—can I get away with 100pf instead of 110pf?

Also, I looked through the phorum but didn't see any discussion of filter cap mounting. I have two small 8uf caps—way too small to fit in the original location where the orange replacement caps are currently. Normally I'd drill a hole and mount a terminal tie strip but there are a lot of wires in here and I don't want to make a mistake and create more work for myself. Curious what solutions have been tried before...

Thanks!

Kurt.
