It's an old racing adage from way back,
Still true in the metric world, There is no substitute for Cubic Centimeters;)
...there is no replacement for displacement...

I dont think you can really spin the plain valve engines any higher to make up for the smaller displacement. I think the engines will run into valve train characteristic speed limitations before piston speed.
The point they were getting at was not to cafe the 1000J I have in pieces, instead build the 650 with the 750 block I got from them and but an 810 kit in it. The bike will be much faster around the track than a 1000 on a dollar per dollar bases. Also it will be less likely to break.
