I'd use 250 or 400 volt caps on this one. I normally just use 400 volt ones so I don't have to keep so many different ones in my bins. You can always use a higher voltage cap; the modern ones are so small that you will not have a space issue. Also, going a little higher in value, say a 20 mf to replace a 16 mf or a 10 mf to replace 8 mf is ok too. I don't like to go under the specified value of capacitance by much, to prevent hum and/or motorboating.

Hope this is helpful.
