Default '76 Ironhead Motor on a '72 hardtail frame?
I currently have a '76 swing arm Ironhead but I found a '72 hardtail frame I want to put the motor into. Are these compatible or am I going to have a hard time with this?

If it was built for a 72 ironhead, then yeah. They use the same mounting and everything.
