The data sheet specs 85 ohms per plate "effective plate supply impedance" for 40uf.
It's not the inrush current but the repeated peak current each half cycle as the cap charges that is the limit here.
The max allowable uf value for the input cap is dependent on the impedance (DCR) of the power transformer.
