Just picked up an Emerson 600/639 Electrostatic

I just picked up this set for a reasonable price. So, I am going through the sams I found online to figure out what kind of caps I need, and i suddenly realized that this is an electrostatic set which means it needs those goofy 6KV caps.

Any idea where to get those? I looked at allied and they dont have the ones I need plus they are very expensive. Yikes. just a handful of those will cost more than I have in the whole set.

I haven't restored a TV since an RCA console, and that was 13 years ago so I am a little rusty.

Anyways, According to the SAMs, I need 6KV caps of:

1 .0047
2 .005 (probably cant find those, maybe .0047?)
2 .001
1 .0005

No idea why they used .0047, and then .005 for the vertical.

Any ideas?
