It would probably be worth getting a list together of all the electrolytic caps and ordering them from Mouser or Digi-Key. Modern caps are almost always smaller given WV and capcaitance,so space shouldn't be a problem.

Don't get them from Radio Shack, they are doggie dirt and you will go into debt at their prices (if you can actually find them anymore, given their fine selection).

Mouser and Digi-Key also sell "hi-temp" caps, which are probably worth the premium in this application.
