I'd be inclined to leave it alone for now and revisit the cap if your set later has problems with width, etc.

I think that is EXACTLY what I am going to do. THX! Plus I think I had trouble finding a mica rated at 47 pf that was at or above 1.5kV.

Funny, my other admiral console has too much width and I cannot shrink it down. Width control maxed out on back. I did not replace the resistors or mica in that deflection yoke. Maybe I should. All other caps and resistors replaced in that set.
