If you look at the pic you see the combustion bowl, if you switch a front rotor with a rear rotor, the bowl will be upsidedown.
Not interchangeable.
To tell if it's a front or rear rotor you have to know which side the gear is on.
I can't remember off the top of my head by I can let you know tomorrow unless someone else already has.

This is a rear rotor. The gear is on the right side so when it is rotating in the engine the bottom or larger part of the bowl reaches the combustion chamber first.
A front rotor will have the gear on the opposite side.

Just got done Dissasembling my 12a. Took about an hour. The front hub bolt was a little tight and the rear stat gear was a biotch to get out. Took one hour and that was fighting sticking components like the dowl pins- I need to make a tool for that.
Quick question. I only have one apex seal spring for each apex seal. Is this normal on 12a's? On the 13b's I know they have two springs- one small and one larger one for each apex.
