To get OS3.9 running on my viper I installed an a500 3.1 rom on the motherboard itself. It's a lot slower then the 32-bit roms on the viper but I didn't feel like trying to desolder the 3.0 roms and solder 3.1 roms on the viper board.
Too bad you lose the 1.3 rom that way :-(

From what I remember you loose DMA capability on the expansion slot once the viper is installed.
As such I doubt an existing scsi controller would work (unless it's non DMA?), my a590 didn't either.
