VPI HW-19 Jr. Upgrade

I am considering upgrading my VPI 19 Jr. w/AQ PT-6.
I've narrowed it down as the followings.

1. Upgrade my Jr. to the Mk4
2. Put the Scout platter and bearing on my JR
3. Upgrade to the Scout/JMW-9 and sell my JR./PT-6
4. Change JMW 10 Tonearm

What is my best bet in upgrading from my Jr.?
What kind of sonic improvement can I expect?

It would be very appreciate if you give me an advice.
Any other suggestions are welcome too.

I upgraded my HW19 Jr by adding the MK III platter and spindle and noted improved detail especially in the bass.
I got an email from someone here on Agon several months ago about making a plinth for the Jr from kitchen counter material like Corian(sp?). Haven't tried that yet but he claimed it made a nice improvement.
