Keeping the original can intact but disabled, I ended up installing three
100 uF @ 250v caps and one 22 uF cap underneath the R-4B. It was a tight
fit, but two 100 uF axial caps and the 22 uF fit snuggly in a cluster next
to S-meter adjust pot. The other 100 uF cap fit with not a hair to spare
between the phones jack and chassis. The arrangement let me keep the same
lead lengths of the wiring harness. The cap switchout was a preventative
maintenance measure more than anything, as the original 1967 vintage cap was
still chugging along...but for how long...

FYI, I got the caps from Mouser Electronics...pretty cheap, too...
