[Elecraft] KEY OUT and TX Delay

I have a Ten Tec Hercules II amp I'm not using and I was thinking about
trying it with my KX3.
I know the KX3 has a KEY OUT available on the ACC2 jack (I did purchase the
ACC2 Module). From what I've read, Ten Tec amps will work with a non-Ten
Tec transceiver without the full keying loop if there is a short delay (4-8
msec?) between the transceiver's KEY OUT closure and the application of RF.
My question: Is there any delay built into the KX3 between KEY OUT closure
and transmitting RF?
I've read about the 8 msec+ adjustable TX Delay for the K3 but couldn't find
any references to TX Delay and the KX3. I know there's a CW Delay setting in
the KX3 menu, but that controls the time it takes the KX3 to switch back to
receive after key-up.
I'm not hoping for full QSK, but slow QSK/semi-break in would be nice.
Thanks,
John Pfeifer
