If you don't receive any offers, you could, if there's room enough, use a pair of 100uF 250V caps in series. Add a 1 megohm resistor across each cap, to be sure the voltage evenly splits across each cap. Works well, you need to be sure the upper cap is insulated from the chassis. Terminal strips and circuit board style caps is what I've used, below the chassis.

yes,I have a 100uf@315vdc,but the voltage is to low,kinda of large
in size,for a radial cap...a correct size would be better...thanks

That's why he suggested putting two 100uf in series. The capacitance will be halved to 50uF and the voltage rating doubled.
