Multi-section Cap cans?

[7chord]

I'm shopping for some cans for the X-101-B. Anyone find any closer matches for the original cans?

For the three section 40/40/100 @ 450v can, the closest I see is https://www.tubesandmore.com/products/capacitor-ce-mfg-450v-40404040-f-electrolytic, which could get me 40/40/80 - pretty close.

The other can is 60mfd/500v & 40mfd/450v. Closest match is https://www.tubesandmore.com/products/capacitor-ce-mfg-500v-402020uf which could yield two 40mfv/500v sections.

Check with Tom @ Hayseed Hamfest.com. He can custom build you can's that meet/exceed the spec's with a 105*C temp rating. And the price is about the same. He built them for my 101-B last year and they work just fine. I don't remember what they cost right now but IIRC they were a couple bucks cheaper than the C.E.'s. Drop right in, and connect them up. Copy and paste the can cap jpg to your quote request.
Probably about $75-85 shipped.

I'd seen mention of Hayseed before... Thank you for that info, going to follow up immediately on that!

I've been using them for going on 7 years now for all my FISHER Gear and the one's I did for others. Haven't had one can failure in all that time.

Prices are slightly better then off the shelf CE cans. I went ahead and ordered them!

Used H-H in my Fisher 400. Very impressed with quality of the units.
