Vixen 16k mapped to BLK5...Possible?

I want to run some cartridge images from my uIEC. Does anyone know if the Vixen 16k RAM module can be modified to allow ram at BLK5?

Anyone got one of these in good working condition, and would be willing to fire (pun intended) it over to me here in Tokyo?

I can pay via Paypal.
