Closest I've come is using a flyback from a ctc-17 Hoffman clone (rectangular) in a ctc-15 Silvertone clone (round.) It did work but width was a little low. I have used salvaged yokes from junk tube type color sets on CTC-53's with burned yoke wiring and they worked fine.

I would just have at it, I don't think you'll damage anything as long as you get the yoke wired up with the horiz coils to horiz and vert to vert...however you will need to use a chassis that has tubes at least on the horiz and vertical outputs as the impedance of the yokes used on solid state sets even if they are delta gun is different than that for tube sets.
You can wire up the convergence coils from from the round tube to the corresponding wires from the rectangular set's convergence board...the circuit boards appear pretty similar between rect. and round.
