Me too! I've been looking for some NOS examples on Fleabay in the case of having to replace either of them. I wouldn't mind some for other builds either... :mrgreen:

Looking at some big, red caps right now. :)

Thanks buddy, and thanks for the offer, Mark, but I was referring to some big red film caps, though. They're actually not that big... :wink:

It's more of a curiosity on my part. I'm just worried they'll be leaky even though they're advertised as NOS. Some caps just weren't made as well as others. Cheap enough to risk it, I guess.
