Update with questions - Lionel 6-8406 #783 smoke unit (change to a post war style)

I don't know if anyone has done this, but my dad has the 783, but it only runs around the Christmas tree and he isn't very good at keeping the smoke unit wet.  If I purchased a used unit that may have fit in the original 773 with the same type of old style heating element, do you think this would be a pretty easy, low modification swap?  I know we'll lose the steam chest smoke, but that's not really a concern.

Any thoughts?

As always, thanks!
