Hi,
The ratings for capacitors are well known. Programs like MicroSim
and ScanTesla can find the RMS currents, voltages, peak currents,
frequencies,... Then you can build up or get a capacitor to
match. A nice source of the basic equations and charts is here:

Apparently you are making a coil which is different than what are
usual charts list. But all the numbers can be figured out just the
same... You already know most of the special considerations for the
Tesla coil case.
Do you know any of the voltages, current levels, or frequencies your
coil will be running at yet?
Cheers,
Terry
