Howdy, Ben,
Yes, the Euro shank Blokepiece SOLO seemed to lock in better for me than any American shank MP with an adapter (including the American Blokepiece) that I had been using on my Nirschl 6/4 CC and my Alex (old-style 164?) BBb. The euro fits the giant receiver on the Alex pretty well (at least it's a better match than any other modern MP I've tried).
Mostly pitch seemed to be slightly, but noticeably (from our end of the horn) easier.
hope that helps,
T. J.
