Take the 583...
Bullet proof motor and the S-chassis is much more lite and fairly nimble to toss around Vs the remaining options. If I'm corect, the '96 Formula III is an F-chassis.

583 is the most solid engine your gonna get outta that bunch. It does pretty good on gas, and hauls some balls when you need it to.

IMO the 583 is the best sled out of the three choices listed. They are really reliable and it will have the sc-10 suspension which will be better than the c-7 that the f3 600 has.

well do you want a tripple or twin? the 583 is newer better gas mileage, better suspemsion, id go with the 583, unless of course you like triples?
the 6" billet risers look sweet, can sounds sick :D ready for winterrrr

The 583 has plenty of power prolly hit if not the triple digits then close to like 98mph, like said the sled is balls to the wall fast all your going to need the formula is a triple ill prolly get some **** for this but im not a big fan of triples ive herd about them, ridden them, owned them they dont impress me. Had one blow up on me though! that was always nice? well my 2 cents would b the 583

583 by a long shot! i have a mxz with the motor its good on gas and with the speed. and with the triple they can melt cylinders and bearing fast!
and a 583 is a 670 bottom end but just different jugs!
