just thought I'd shoot in that the caps you're looking for is now called Epcos Sikorel.
you could try www.conrad.de - but I don't know if they have your size 😉 and their prices are kind of stiff.

You can get the 4700uf in 40v from greenweld.co.uk, a surplus supplier in the UK. I don't know if they ship internationally though. They are £2 each
Ehhhh 😕
thank you for your tip but I allready finished my project. A question though, how do you know they're Sikorel's ??

You can get them fromarrow electronics. But I phoned them up for a quote on a 10000uf 100v b41550, and they told me lead times are 15 to 17 months!!!!, and a min order of 15 are required. So for the average diyer, that would be un acceptable.
I, too, would be interested in any sources for someone living in the US. Either located in the US or willing to ship there.
Thanks.

RS-Components has them.
Duck-Twacy: for the Netherlands :

Indeed they are now Epcos-Sikorel iso Siemens-Sikorel.
The Siemens-Sikorel are the best sounding and performers among the large electrolytics.
Don't know the Epcos quality (yet).

Perhaps they are, but at 39 pounds each for 10000uf,100v, +Shipping, duty, and brokerage fees, it works out to about to $90-$100ea US, after shipping and other fees. From Arrow electronics, (the only supplier in north america) they told me a cost of $25 each, a min order of 15, and a lead time of 15-17 weeks per order. Not exactly criterita for diy builders.

The Sikorel i used a couple of times too, and i agree.
These caps have never been cheap, $25 a piece isnt bad.
I bought them in Dusseldorf, Germany :

They carry the Epcos now, have a look.

If looking for the old Siemens Sikorels, the best are the B41570.
Downside: the pricetag was +50% above the B41455's
