The S55c will be easy to revert back to conservatoire system by removing the thumbplate and filling in the pillar holes, plus replacing the back 8ve touchpiece key cork with a much thinner one and adjusting the venting.

If it has a 3rd 8ve key (some were made without for the US market), then that will make matters more serious as it will need a new 3rd 8ve key that overlaps the back 8ve touch and also have a cut-out made in the back 8ve touch to accommodate the 3rd 8ve touchpiece.
