From the surface the guides do appear to show the exact same layout of the logic board and the connections to it. If you compare the power supply and the display you’ll also see these parts are also interchangeable between the two series.
While I haven’t swapped out logic boards my self I think its a safe bet it would work.
But before you head down that path why don’t you tell us why you think the logic board is gone and tell us what the onboard diagnostic LED’s are telling you. Maybe we can pull a rabbit out of the hat here (it would be cheaper!)
