Looking forward to your impressions, ricks. I'm really enjoying my mark 1 Engines (do you have one?), and wouldn't mind picking up a pair of these Nano models for single coil. I'm keen to know whether the bases are swappable. Hopefully a reviewer will let us know soon.

Doubt you can swap them as with top airflow, the air is/should be directed differently for a single coil than a dual coil deck. Not saying it can't be done (I've seen a few folks put a single coil on the dual deck) but not sure the performance would be the same.

After further research, it seems it CAN'T be done, at least not off-the-shelf. They've changed the deck and chamber to use a single guide-tab/guide-slot, so the old chamber won't fit on the new deck (unless you're willing to get out the Dremel, which I'm not).

They also have some chinglish market-text about airflow changes: "Change the airflow hole from top to side, the air hit the wire closer." Unhelpfully, they don't include any pictures looking up into the Nano's chamber.
