The VIN should be on the head tube just like they are on the trikes.

Your best bet would be to get a 85 or 86 250R trike rolling chassis, you know one that some racer pulled the engine out of to put in a quad, they are usually very cheap.
That way you have all the parts you would need and would be able to see if they can be made to fit on the CR frame. I imagine you would at least need to modify the swingarm mounts for the ATC swingarm to fit. but if all that is beyond your means, go with putting the CR engine in the trike frame which would be the easy way out. You would still have a bad ass trike. Is the CR you have powervalved? How does it run now?

One thing to remember, the stock CR engine doesn't have a stator capable of running lights if that is a concern.

Does he mean VIN on the engine? I think its near the sprocket under dirt?

The CR 250 & 500 do not have a counterbalance in the engine. I rode a 250R with the Cr 250 conversion at an ice race this past winter and it damn near shook me off the foot pegs.
