I think the stock jetting is the same as the K5 with 105 mains and 40 idle.  I believe the emulsion tubes are different with the F tubes being an improvement so it would be an upgrade IMO.  One member mentioned in another thread recently that he had a noticeable improvement when he put the needles and emulsion tubes from an F into his K.  I would think they would fit.
