Oiling issues will kill a bike engine long before anything else.
yes that's for dam sure !
bike lean in turns so the oil pans are designed to pick up the oil in them that way .
when you mount the motor and it does not lean in a car like on a bike so to avoid oil problems you really should replace the bikes stock pan with one made for the uses of the motor in a car .
this is why I stay away from motors that are a little to different from the norm .
using the motors out of the r1's gsxr's and such you can buy good oil pans for .
the rocket motor we did in my shop we did not have the option of a good pan for uses in a car .
in that case we did a moroso oil accumulator to always keep the oil pressure up were it needs to be .
