There is a lot of "false news" bandied about stating the EVO components must come from a bike with all 3 main criteria for the class as std equipment, ie: air cooled, drum brake, no linkage. Not so, if it is an air cooled motor, drum brake or non linkage system from any bike within the period (up to & including the post classic period), you can use it. Eg: you could use the forks, wheel & TLS brake from a 1982 YZ or CR as they are original drum brake forks within the period, even though they came from a bike with liquid cooling & linkage suspension. If there is a 1994 model bike out there with drum brake front end, air cooled engine or a no linkage suspension, you can use those components as well.

On that basis, an engine from a CR500, YZ490, KX500 & RM500 is allowed?

I personally think brakes should be pretty much free in these classes, as it's a safety issue, not a performance enhancing one. At least identify the best brake available in that era, and allow every bike to run it. The vintage sportscar / touring car classes , brakes are free to upgrade to any disk you like just, again for the safety issue. And I think pebble beach concourse restoration type shows don't deduct points for upgraded braking systems.
