Hi Gareth,
why bother fitting a stand when the upright 7's fullfill the same purpose and give you a greater reserve/better filling logistics? I dive this configuration and found that it suits me very well (but I know I'm in the minority there)

I suspect you'll find they stick out too much if you invert them. 3L are better for that. Though I also use long 3L valves up if I need a lighter unit and less gass.
Re changing the DSV second stage - most new Kiss owner look at that and then find it can't be done (easily) as the pargon has such a small mouthpiece stem that nothing else seems to fit.
Have fun
