He's making the cap bank for you, right? He will wire them in PARALLEL to give you the extra capacity. Wiring them in SERIES adds the voltage of each cap together. It's just like with batteries.

Yes, and wiring caps in series also reduces the capacitance, just like resistors in parallel. 6 X 1000uF 25v caps in series would make a single 166uF 150v cap...
