Re the teardown, I was in exactly the same boat a couple of years ago, and started out by shooting a whole bunch of photos from even angle so I would have some reference to look back at if I had doubts. Also took a bunch of shots during the disassembly. Memories aren't as good as pictures.
It's not real significant, and if you're going to swap in cams, you swap in 3.5 cams or JWT cams. Def. not worth the hassle to swap in DE-K cams.
