Thanks for your offer, but today we found a couple of Russian jobs at 
15kv and .01 uF that will work perfectly.
You and Gary are kind to respond!

.0265uF is fairly large, uncommon, and expensive if you're talking
strictly about mica caps.  Is there a reason you can't use more commonly
available polypropylene caps?  Four 0.1uF/2kV caps will give you a very
economical .025kV/8kV cap.  I use this with a 4kV/20mA NST with
excellent results.  See
