Any aircraft experience is worth having but I'm not sure that would meet the requirements. Here's the general requirements:

"You must have a minimum of 18 months practical experience on Airframe or Powerplant appropriate to the rating sought or at least 30 months of practical experience concurrently performing the duties appropriate to both Airframe and Powerplant to be signed off for both."

Your experience will have to be within FAA guidelines of proper experience or they won't sign you off. Gray areas just don't fly with the FAA. If you think your area of experience falls into that category then I would contact the FAA.
