What about the duty cycle?

Corvairs normally run at 2000 to 2300 rpms. Airplane
aplication ask another 1000 rpm, to run at 3000 to
maybe 34-3600. William Wynne says that is no problem
for a stock corvair.

Where do Harleys cruise at as far as RPMs go?

Agreed!

While the Harley has similar power loading to the Corvair, I just don't see how to justify the extra cost.
