Midway81:
i thought if a game had the jamma wiring harness then you could put any other jamma board in it? Am i wrong? I looked up a few other street fighters like ex... and it said jamma, so why couldnt i put it in, there are the same amount of buttons.....

The kick harnesses are different, so you would need to rig some sort of adapter. Remember, jamma standard is 3 buttons, not 6.

SF2 is Jamma, except that it has a daughter board with its own harness coming out of it for the kick buttons, like HaurmaN said. Here's the page out of the SF2 manual with the pinout of this part:

SF2 was offered as a conversion kit only, so distributors converted existing machines to SF2, or used new Dynamo cabs. SF2CE was offered pre-installed in a Dynamo Z-back only for $5000 with no conversion kit offered until some time later or so if I recall correctly.

The original dedicated SFII CE machines were in ordinary Dynamo HS-5 (not Z-back) cabinets. They were labeled on the back as "CPCM STREETFIGHTER 3 (HS5)" (see attachments below).

Wow, nice find. It says manufactured by Dyanamo, so it still smells pretty 3rd party to me. I wonder if the original purchaser bought that from Capcom or Dynamo? Would make sense to make use of any cabinet design you had on hand to churn these out as they were so hot at the time. I'm curious what the plate on the back of a dedicated Z-back reads.
