GSL-SE clutch to a 12a?

My clutch in my 12a is slipping, i have a good condition clutch from a 13b in my garage, can this be put in my 12a? I also have a GSL-SE flywheel, so if that's the issue, i have that taken care of.

All N/A clutches from '83 to present are interchangeable.

Until this weekend, I had a Series 5 pressure plate and a Series 4 clutch disk on a Series 3 12A.

The difference is, all rotaries '74-82 had 215mm clutches, while all N/A rotaries '83-present have 225mm.


Nowadays, I have an '80 engine with an '81-82 flywheel, so I'm back to a 215mm clutch...

Thank you, it is indeed '85. I was pretty sure it would, but i wanted to double check before i spent all that work.
