Nah, he just used surface mount capacitors when he needed through-hole style. They'll work, but I suspect they'll break off from vibration.
If you're really set on using the surface mount caps, I would desolder them, run a little of wire down into the capacitor hole, and bring the wire over to the pad on the capacitor so they're more secure mechanically.
I'd personally order the correct capacitors though.

I used the same capacitors that where in there originally. In the earlier post adout the pin style caps and I took a pic of the surface mount. I don't think I could have used pin style.. I did cap for cap.
