Default 1969 Gemini "Maverick" 50 or 80?

I picked this up not too long ago at a Swap meet for $50. From what I have gathered, it is a 1969 Gemini Maverick, made in Taiwan by the Sun Tan Tong company, and the original engine was a 2-Stroke Yamaha Yg-1 Copy. Its been replaced with what appears to be a 1970s Briggs and Stratton 5hp .

What I wonder is, is this the 80cc frame, or a 50cc frame with a cradle added?
