I still have the 53.5uF 10KV Sangamo I picked up decades ago. About 150# if 
I remember and always destined for the ultimate amp I never got around to 
building....yet.

The 1500W 2M amp has been upgraded from a pair of 12uF 4000V  to three at 
5000V since Ive reconfigured things to use the same PS on multiple VHF/UHF 
amps. The transformer was custom built for me in the 80's when I was selling 
them thru Radiokit and has 3 input taps and 4 output selections.

I picked up a CP cap at Dayton a few years ago for $20 or $30, 7.5 KV
8.7 uF oil cap. It had a case crack but JB Weld fixed that.  Seems
good to go.  Probably make a nice filter cap for a choke input.
