Caps for Soundstream DA-1


I recently aquired a Soundstream DA-1 amp.  I've listened to them in the past and always been impressed.  So,  I get this one in and find out that two of the big 17000uf electrolytic caps are cracked and completely drained.  Anyone have any recommendations on replacements (manufacturer, source)?  Should I go larger?  Maybe 22000uf?  Suprisingly, I'm not finding much info on refurbishing or improving this amp on the Internet.  

Anything would be appreciated.

Specs on the cap is 17000uf, 80V DC, 85 degree C, 100 VDC max surge.

I have some smaller 12000 75v volt cde.. Would prolly work. Solder pins on top. Two for 13$ shipped.  Yours prolly needs the bolts.  What kind of crack?  They may still be ok... Typically they push out a plug on the top, a little round hole.. I guess people will say they go bad in time etc lifespan, General maintance to replace..  I've replaced a bunch of perfectly fine caps in my time..
Check digikey or mouser pick the voltage 75, 80, 100v then weed it down with some uf sizes then click on the high ripple current, then observe size and connections
