    Well I claim no fame. M.Mohat  tested a bunch and  .22uf  was his conclusion (  see his testing & chart )   . As to the brown caps  I ordered a bunch of them few years ago  and you confirm they work likeI suspected being  600V + and sturdy.  Going on memory …. I am pretty certain properly insulated the will fit inside old emptied out  cap cans  for solid  mounting. Just drill a small hole on the bottom and weld one wire to the can for grounding. the other end  can be  extended a bit and  insulated from the can  and   connected to the points . A  dab of epoxy  or  “corona” silicon in the can  will hold them in place. 🙂

     

    m.Mohat  preferred the ceramic stuff $$$ at 850V    but they are very tiny to work with and solder. I got some cheap ones from amazon but never got around to installing them in a cap. can.
