Ultegra 6703 - 6603

Fellow riders, my question is simple enough. I have all parts of an Ultegra 6703 except the shifters. I have found an amazing deal for a pair of Ultegra Sti-6603 that would complete my set. So the question is, would they work together without problems?
My chainset is also triple (6703) & my cassete is a 10 speed.
P.S. If anyone has any experience with the shifters in question would appreciate the feedback.
Many thanks in advance for all replies!

A 6700 shifter pulls more cable through when the brakes are applied than 6600. 6700 calipers are designed for this increased cable pull but the 6600 calipers can be set up to accomodate this by increasing the distance of the brake blocks from the rim. Braking would be more gradual but brakes full on, would be full on.
All my road bikes have different caliper brakes - 7900, 6500 and Mafac centre pulls. The feel and effectiveness are all different. You just have to get used to them and ride appropriately.0
