Eduard PE for B-17 E/F: Can you use G sets?

Now that the HKM B-17 E/F is out, I notice very little Eduard PE is available. The G model has a TON of it, including two Big Ed sets, resin turbochargers, resin wheels and resin engines.

 

My question to you guys who know more, how different is the G from the Memphis Belle (the likely one I will build), and what (if any) can I use from the G?

 

Separate question: is Eduard planning on bringing out Big Ed sets for the E/F?

To answer another question, the Memphis Belle (one of the first 300 B-17F's built) was considerably different in many ways from the B-17G. Apart from the obvious airframe differences, there were hundreds of modifications incorporated into the G that were not on the F. Included in that are the differences between the later F's and the first 300 built such as the Tokyo tanks.
