Default Hacker Democrat capacitor substitution

Hi Folks.

I am changing some dodgy looking capacitors in the amplifier of a fairly battered Democrat I know valve sets can be fairly forgiving due to wide electrolytic tolerances but not sure about transistor sets? Do you think I would be OK with the following substitutions?

C4 and C8 400uF 10V change to 470uF 10V and C21 40uF 16V to 47uF 16V? I will fit some if they are OK, the old values seem as rare as hen's teeth or very expensive!

Regards, Kev.
