I'd had some 5mfd/50VDC caps a long, long time ago. Used 10mfd/50VDC and even 25mfd/50VDC. No difference in the tremolo tone, that I can tell.
An 8mfd/150VDC Sprague ATOM will fit, in that position. AES now stocks 5mfd/50VDC ATOMs.

I wonder if I have the wrong tube in the spot. I'll have to check on it.
I am not sure I would go with 6U8 or 12DW7 phase splitters. Any 12AU7 as in 1/2 of the 12DW7 are not good sounding tubes. I know a phase splitter is not as critical as preamp circuits, but every tube counts. 6U8s are ok, but still not an audio tube.
The best 12DW7 by a long shot were CBS 12DW7s. They are very rare now. It may take over a year just for one to show up on ebay.
