Measure the cells. Many, not all, 150/5.6 lenses will fit in a #0 but some require a #1.

If you don't know shutters' sizes, you can find them on www.skgrimes.com and on http://www.suaudeau.eu/memo/pratique/Les_obturateurs_centraux.html

Both lenses come with the copal 0 shutter, i was asking this because it could be needed some f:/ stop adjustment or small spacing differences or even screw sizes!
thanks

It should work fine - any difference in the aperture setting will be minimal. Spacing wise, the best thing would be to check that the overall length of the mounted lens is the same between the old mount and new. I've done this when taking lenses out of Sinar DB mounts and putting them in shutters. You do need some precision measuring equipment for this... otherwise just try it and see how your images turn out.
