replacing the lens mount on the letus 35A

Just wondering if anyone has any experience replacing the lens mount on the letus 35A. Basically, the aluminum lens mount on the Letus is really badly machined & so the lens fit is really loose.

After reading some threads in DVinfo, its comforting to know i wasn't the only one.

Anyhow, I have bought a broken Nikon SLR & I plan to rip off the mount & some how install it to the Letus.

Should I be worried about the flange distance or some other technical mumbo that will affect the focusing?

Here is the link to some horror drama I shot with the letus on the Sony Z1. I like the result, the letus just needs a little modifications.
