Bob,

I guess it is worth a try if you really want to do that.  The BFO 
frequency must change to the other side of the IF.

One reason I can see for changing USB to LSB is to change the pitch of 
the received signal note as you tune upward in frequency.  With USB, the 
pitch decreases as you tune upward, and with LSB it increases. 
Whichever is better is a personal preference, and some folks don't 
really care.  If you are one who does not care, then I suggest that you 
leave well enough alone.

73,
