As I remember both are 125mm as to with is the best hard to say on second-hand pianos without seeing them. I have only tuned K20 so I can't compare the 2 models

143983 = c1964 not their finest years all depend on how it has been looked after. Yamaha and Kawais of that age are normally second-hand imports and don't travel well

You would need an on site inspection to say if the piano is any good I would contact your local tuner
