Im a newbie and have a small stash of PG amp I have used over the years and all of you know you dont get ride of your PG amps! I bought my first when they first came out in early 90s MS 250. So I did a bunch of reserch on here and have to say the board is the bomb and my hat goes off to all of you!
Now after the research I was buying from digikey and the 5600 uf caps were on back order so I got 4700 uf instead and when I opened the bag I noticed that the 4700uf caps are the 16 x 31.5 in size. Is there any reason why I shouldnt use these or should I order the 5600uf now that they are back in stock. Sorry about the rant but is ther that much more saturation with the 2mm larger cap.
I bought 4 different size caps so I could do all my amps MS 250, M44, M50, ZX500.

Thanks
Jimmie

WELCOME to this forum to start with.
The caps you bought are fine; they are far better than the ones originally used by PG.
Be sure to read all the info here before you start; it will make the job alot more easy, and you won't have to "re-invent the wheel".
Good luck, if in doubt about anything feel free to PM me.
