Do you mean the early outers on the gpz cases?
If yes then! yes and no.
Some will physically bolt straight on i.e ignition housing and generator cover BUT the gpz uses a different stator mount to the earlier motor so some jiggery pokery needed to get a working charging system.
Also the clutch cover is different and will need an adaptor plate like the one below made for fitting lock-up covers to the later motors .
Available from Hoopers (pitstop performance) if you are not handy with the hacksaw and files.
