The front and rear rotor housings are different. The passage from the Air Control Valve runs down the back of the front housing and down the front of the rear housing. If you swap them over your Air pump and ACV will be useless and your car will not pass emmision test.

Guess I forgot since deleting all emissions. I stand corrected. Thanks.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure both will have knock sensor ports either.

Appologies for the OP.
