Swapping Cartridges on the DV 507MKII

I have an Aries 3 with the Dynavecotor 507MKII and DV 20-XL cartridge. My shop has offered to loan me a DV DRT XV-1. Can I try the DRT by just swapping the headshells on the 507 without having to reset all of the arm settings? Is this a stupid idea?

The XV-1s weighs about 4 grams more so you'll need to adjust VTF.

I've never swapped these cartridges in a 507II but sure would check the VTA before lowering the arm.

The 507II/XV-1s combo is breathtaking IMO
