Nov 19, 2009 #2 SNORGY Mechanical Sep 14, 2005 2,510 I suspect "yes" if the substitution is A333 for one of the others you listed. There would, of course, be exceptions and qualifications. I suspect "no" - in general - if the substitution is attempted the other way. Regards, SNORGY. Upvote 0 Downvote
