I have an original Pac-Man machine. Will an original Ms. Pac-Man pcb fit directly into this machine?

If I am going to track down a Ms. Pac-Man board, what distinguishing marks do official
Ms. Pac-Man boards have?
 
Yes, the boards are basically the same. The only difference is that Ms. Pac-Man has an extra circuit board (daughter board) plugged into the CPU socket and 2 of the ROMs on the main board are different. The necessary parts are readily available on E-bay. There are also various sources for add-ons that allow 16, 24 or 96 variants to be played on an original Pac-Man PCB. Jr. Pac-man PCBs also have the same pinout as Pac/Ms. Pac and will plug directly into your cabinet.
 
Like OregonPacman I would suggest a multi Pac board. But if you want to keep it original all you need is a Ms. Pac daughter board (and a couple of diff chips) to plug into you existing Pac board.

The field conversion ones designed to use AC will, the DC versions from the dedicated cab won't. (at least from what I understand)
