As far as electrolytics, in multi cans when you have for example:
80uf @ 350v
40uf @ 350v
100uf @ 50v
Does it matter if the 100uf 50v gets replaced with a 600v?
For some reason I thought I should keep the voltage close...
other than cost and size, it wouldn't matter in the circuit?

You're welcome. You sure could replace the 100uF 50V with a 100uF 600V and it would work fine. The extra size and cost would probably be a bit on the excessive side (especially if the chassis is cramped or you happen to be as big of a cheapskate as me
), but if you don't mind that there is no other reason not to.
On the smaller caps 50V or less I tend to just yank one from some 90's electronic item in my bone-yard. You can probably grab an assortment of caps that contains several 100uF 50V from Radio Shack for less than a single 100uF 600V cap (though I can say from experience RS don't stock good quality electrolytics).
