-frames 52-76 interchange. short frame was 52-66 all and 67-69ch. long were the other yrs/models. 
-to change from one to the other you need: frame, swing arm (also long or short. its the swing arm that varies the wheel base), driver peg supports 
-using the short frame with hump (long fame) motors will require some kind of solution of side stand contacting primary drain plug and boss. 
-the pri drain is a hump motor thing. to intergrate its addition to the cases the footpeg mounting points and kickstand tab were moved forward on the long. frame. hence the different driver peg supports to bring pegs back into position. \\

 On pre 70 Sportsters, the year the frame was stamped for use was under the seat right casting, these frames may have sat in a factory rack a year prior.. this is the lug that would be used for the Large Gas Tank.. did you look?? \\ On pre 70 Sportsters, the year the frame was stamped for use was under the seat right casting, these frames may have sat in a factory rack a year prior.. this is the lug that would be used for the Large Gas Tank.. did you look?? \\

 +Like I stated, I have installed earlier engines in newer frames, but not vice versa.
 +This does not necessarily apply to his post, just mentioning to possibly inform anyone who's interested.
 +If using a 82-84 frame the front plates are larger like the early style, but the 82-84 plates are shaped differently and only work for 82-84.
 +The same goes for a 82-84 rear motor mount.
 +The early engine will not fit into a 82-84 w/o the 82-up rear mount.
 +I assume the same for 77-up engines, they will only fit into 82-up frame w/ 82-up rear mount.
 + I do not know if a 77-up engine will fit into an earlier frame.
 + I don't know if a 82-up rear mount in this situation would be needed or not.
 + I don't know if it will physically fit (the sump) between the frame rails.
 + I do know a EVO enginewill fit into a 82 frame.
 + This was only after my buddy attempted to do it.
 + He was told over and over on different Internet sites that it was impossible. \\
