Chuck, please take a rest, you really are in over your head here...
The AMA Super Stockers can only run stock internals, and a 800# or 900# car
vs a 600# bike and rider???
There is no 2 stroke replacement for the class, maybe a rotax 492??? If you
were to keep with the sled theme, the next logical choice would be a 4 stroke
sled motor.
It's been stated by others, the alienation of the class is due to the CVT
drive, so motorcycle power would make more sense if your trying to revive the
class, imho....

Chris,
Just trying to compare apples to apples.
You admit to a series of wrong choices for aftermarket rods.
Your AMA is also a MC organization and they don't stress the motors or
tranny's like a car chassis and added mass and drag does. The car also
forces the motor nearly upright thus complicating oil control.
I agree with you that correct build-up diminshes the MC motor breakage, but
as you say, it costs $.
F500 2-strokes don't appear to require aftermarket rods and pistons.
Your bike motors are just fine as they are being used, but I still doubt
they are a proper replacement for 2-strokes in F500.
To each their own.
Chuck
