Swap logic board Late 2013 with Mid-2014?

I have a Late-2013 (MacBookPro 11,2/2.0GHz/8GB) MacBookPro that works fine, but I also have a Mid-2014 (MacBookPro 11,3/2.8GHz/16GB) which boots and works, but has a failed battery, cracked screen, and messed up keyboard. Since they both are Retina 15” MBP Model A1398, can I simply swap the logic boards? Do I need to swap the i/o boards too, or anything else? Or worse, is there something I don’t recognize as being different that I should be concerned with?

Thanks

It appears that your 2013 is an integrated graphics and the 2014 is a dual graphics. The boards are not listed as interchangeable.

Thanks, but follow up: Where are you looking up the interchangeable feature? Also, what about the GPU (or lack thereof) make the boards non-interchangeable? Is the display different?
