I would run DM first to extend the experimental phases to the limit of your resolution.. Then if you run REFMAC to refine your MR model, using the experimental phases as part of the input the output phases from REFMAC will include contributions from both the MR and the DM/experimental phasing. This will be weighted according to the FOMs for the refined model R factors and the experimental ABCDs ( But make sure your MR and experimental phases are on the same origin and hand! Easiuest way to do this is to get a mtz file with the Model phases alone, "CAD"ed with the experimental phases then run phasematch - a reflection utility. This tells you if you need to shift the origin for either MR or exptl phases and applies the correction..)
Of course the part of the map with the model phases will look better, and at 3.1A you will have trouble rebuilding the remaining stuff but good luck!
