Will a paperboy pcb plug into a championship sprint

Thinking about picking a Championship Sprint up and converting to Paperboy since their the same cabinet. Finding the handlebars may be a bit tough though
 
Be careful with that one-

There are at least two different versions of the System II video boards. You'd have to make sure you have a ROM set that fits the sockets you have (or the knowledge to split/combine them).

I'm pretty sure there is a protection chip that may need to be swapped for the different games too.

Slapstik?
 
I might be wrong here, but it sounds like he's talking about plugging into the harness, not swapping any chips...
 
I have a complete Paperboy boardset that I was told worked when it was pulled so yah just swapping boardsets. Anyone have a control panel ;)
 
the wires that go to the control panel and pedals are different and plug into different spots.

So you need that cable or you need to modify the existing one to work. Otherwise the boardsets can be swapped.
 
I got three boardsets with my paperboy and all were silkscreened as paperboy on the pcbs. One of them booted up and was champion sprint. Swapped the roms out and paperboy came alive. Roms only, no security chip.
