Yes. Mouser has a line of "sanp-in" capacitors by CDE that are
quite reasonable. I have a few here that are part #
5986-85-63V12000, manufacturer's P# 380LX123M063A052
12,000 uF at 63 V. They have at least an entire page on this
series. These caps were about $7 each last year. What I do is
take a piece of single-sided PC board and scribe a line down the
middle through the copper, then drill holes to mount as many
of the caps as the particular project needs. I mount the
bleeder resistor there, too. I mount the board on standoffs in
the box.

These caps are QUITE a bit cheaper than one big "computer grade"
electrolytic.
