One of the PCBs I purchased needs 4 10,000uf 100v caps.
.Now the problem is that I have a bunch of 4700uf 50v caps in spare which I can use.

Would it be okay if I can use the 4700uf caps instead of getting new 10000 if caps?

The amp is Naim Nap 200

If you parallel two 4700 to make one 9400 uf, you should hear no difference.
I make cap assemblies out of smaller caps; two pieces of polycarbonate plastic with holes drilled, the caps, some 18 ga wire, and 2" #6 screws & nuts. I then screw the whole assembly to the main board to keep it from flopping when I carry it around. I had room in my case, you have to evaluate your own space requirement.
3 mm screws & nuts in your part of the world. Use elastic stop nuts so they don't come unscrewed.
