	Have a look at the following url:   
http://www.robertreeves.com/kirkley.htm  I doubt that your C16 holder 
would work with an F-1.5 - 8 inch SC as the radius of curvature of the 
film pressure plate would be quite different I expect.  This has to 
match the RC of the primary to get good focus across the plate.
