    well the fix is a roller cam ..some say oil? no i have seen them go out with every thing done right you can go with the Edm burned lifters.or try to get the johnson hard face lifters . some big blocks have the lifter bores not in the right spot to make the lifters turn with hi spring pressure this will not help .you can run it with out the inners .i have built big blocks for many years i will not run a flat lifter can in one . after a new cam lifters wash out rehone crank polishing all new bearings cam. rod. mains .and if bad pick out the iron in the piston skirts . you cam easly do a roller cam .i just see it happen to many times .i bulid and sell trouble free big blocks they all have hyd or soild roller cams in them
