Can the SPEC (silicone) system be installed on all Scubapro MK10"s. Can all MK10's be upgraded to the MK10 Plus. Thanks for your help!
 
SPEC - Yes. The older ones had small holes in the ambient chamber to retain the silicone. The later ones added a rubber boot, but it is not needed to use the spec system. In fact if you have an older one, finding a boot for it could be hard as most were discarded when SP moved away from the spec system.

Mk 10 Plus - yes all Mk 10's can be upgraded to Mk 10 plus status. The converison involves installing a new spring and a new seat retainer as well as a Mk 10 annual service kit. The new seat retainer will have a shot blasted finish and becomes the externally distinguishing feature of a Mk 10 Plus. I don't think the Mk 10 Plus labels for the yoke knob are still available, but the knobs are and are in my opinion an improvement over the older yoke screw.
