Looks fine to me. Check out how the KV-M1420D looks like.

>For some reason the convergence isn't as good as my KV-M1400D despite of the same tube and chassis
Because the adjustment done in the factory sucked. It took me a hour to remove the high amount of glue seen in: >>2061146 .
>there's a certain buzz on the speaker
And i'm not so smart either. The speaker of the KV-M1400D is just quieter but has the same buzzing. I also measured the caps, the values matched.
Now i have the same great convergence as the other one, imperfect corners on the top and the greens in the lower center are slightly down shifted instead of misplaced reds on the right corners. But it's still better than before.
Now i will set my white balance after my 1280x1024 TFT monitor as it was quite off when i compared it with my wallpaper.

Several factors:
Specific shape of the yoke, swapping them would likely fail.
The deflection coil drivers, they meant to drive a certain impedance.
The CRT Connectors itself and if can the chassis drive the stuff of the electron gun (all grids, cathodes, anode, heater and the anode).
You would need to adjust the geometry if the above points aren't problems.

All CRTs itself work similar enough that you could use them in other system, just pay attention to the technical details and measure and compare as much as possible.

It's also possible to use a VGA or TV CRT as an vector monitor.
