New Tri-Z owner. Help please!

[Cateater]

I just picked up an 85.5 Tri-Z and would love any help offered from you experts. I'm no newbie to three wheeler in general, i have a frankensteined together atc110, and an '84 200x, but this is my first yammie, and i have wanted one for a long time(who wouldn't? They're gorgeous). However, the thing is a literal basket case. Engine and trans completely disassembled and in totes. I managed to grab a service manual online and im confident i can get it back together eventually. First thing i need assistance with: the previous owner cut the bottom mounting tabs off the frame to try and cram a yz250 engine into the thing, then promptly lost them, along with the other stock mounting brackets/hardware. Anyone have some good pictures of them so i can try and create new ones out of stock and weld em on? Second question: is there any common Tri-Z issues or reliability mods i should be doing while this thing is almost entirely apart? I'm looking for as much of a stock experience as i can get, for now anyways, but any input or advice is appreciated.

What motor are you going to put in it

I'm going to be putting the stock tri z engine back in it. Its what i have the most parts for. The stock engine is 99% there.

I can send you any pictures you need.

I was just looking at mine can’t really get a good picture to show. I’d say set the engine in the frame you should be able to see where the mounts go.
