liberator, 50s wiring, single conductor, capacitor values

I want to swap my Seth Lover and Pearly Gates pickups with least effort. I am assessing the feasibility of installing a liberator in a Les Paul. I have researched wiring diagrams on this site. Is there an alternate wiring diagram for 50s wiring with single conductor push-back braided lead wire? Also does Seymour Duncan consider this configuration feasible and advisable? Also, the generated wiring diagrams show 0.47uF capacitors. Are 0.22uF capacitors allowed with the liberator?
 
Re: liberator, 50s wiring, single conductor, capacitor values

If you look at the standard SD humbucker wiring diagrams, they tend to show .047uF caps. It's not just the diagram for the Liberator. Use whatever cap value you prefer but do note that it is commonly .047 or .022, not .47 or .22uF.

I haven't used the Liberator so I'll leave the specific questions to those who know.
