Voltage Rating on capacitor

Hi, I bought a Muzzle kit from Musikding 2 years ago. Now I was thinking of building a few more. The kit is out of stock so I ordered the circuit board and was planning on ordering the parts from tayda myself. I cant really find all the same parts and since I am not really an expert on electronics I thought I´d ask you guys. On my muzzle I have 1uf caps that has 63v rating (1j63) but I can only find 100v (1j100). Can I use these capacitors on the muzzle with a higher rating?

thanks :)
 
The higher voltage rating will be fine (you really just need to be above the max voltage you expect) - keep in mind though that higher voltage generally means a larger (read: fatter, taller) cap, so you may want to take a look at the datasheet to see how big they are as that can cause issues when building and trying to fit everything on the board.
