Just a thought but.........

Yes, the STI can swap out modules; ie. Ronchi or KEF, but there is a risk 
that they won't be exactly calibrated as there is no locking mechanisn. The 
Hutech, once adjusted, is locked into place with a lock ring and then a drop 
of locking fluid can be applied, either fingernail polish or Locktight.
