I am not familiar with that case either, but a little quick research says they use the same chain. So I don't see any problem with that.

I googled it and found thta there are two variants, pre and post '00. pre '00 seems to have a wider chain (1.25") and the post-00 has a narrower (1").

Is this the electronicaly shifted version of the 231?
