[QUOTE="rsaeon, post: 2371726, member: 76792"] That is correct — 270 uF, 16v. Electrolytic capacitors like these have a tolerance of 20% so the actual capacitance could be anywhere between 220 uF and 320 uF. Your replacement caps don't need to be of the same physical appearance or even manufacturer, so long as the specifications match close enough. I've replaced solid capacitors like these with regular capacitors without any longterm issues.
