Switching to the N20/Infusion rudder system is the way to go.
Not that easy. Look at the angle of the 5.8/6.0 sterns compared to the N20 sterns. You won't have enough adjustment with the screws to get your rake right.
4) At the end of the day though, it comes down to bucks, and the Gen 1's cost HALF as much per blade as the Gen 3's.
You're absolutely right. It would suck to waste all that money and find out it won't work.
If you did some transom mods, it could work. BUT one important thing you're missing is that the blades and foils are designed to work with each other and the center of effort of the boat.
