[urq] MC1/2 long block interchangeable with WX?

[Johnny B]

Yeaaa it's looking like the bottom end on my WX is toast. Someone originally had messaged stating to swap the long block with a MC1 and call it good but I wasnt sure if it was interchangeable. Problem with the WX bottom end is availability, here in CA there isnt much to choose from..
