Super Graphic lensboards the same as Speed Graphic?

Can I use a lensboard from a 4x5 Speed Graphic or Crown Graphic on my 4x5 Super Graphic? Are they the same?

There are two raised dimples on the sides of a Super lensboard like the ones on the top and bottom of the Pacemaker board. Otherwise they are identical, and can be interchanged. You'll need to shim the Super board if it doesn't have them, to make a snug fit.
