Hello Ed. Call your local HVAC supplier. They have many different sizes of
motor run caps. A common size is 50uf at 370vac, and 50uf at 440vac.
Typicaly that size is used for a/c compressors. Just get 2 of these and wire
them in series so you get 100uf at 740 vac, or 100uf at 880vac. Johnstone
supply has them.. Go to their site and look under motor controls.... Or
motor accessories...
