I would not be at all confident that the caps you found will work. There 
is the issue of equivalent series resistance -- ESR -- which dissipates 
power if the cap is carrying current, which it certainly is.  I bought a 
bunch of HV caps without knowing this spec for them, and lived to regret 
it. Luckily they were in an antenna matching network where it was easy 
to see them smoking. :)
