    Have you heard anything about ISKY special oiling solid lifters?
    I don't mind adjusting valves..

    Maybe same cam grind, ISKY special oiling solid lifters and high volume oil pump would do the trick..????
    every one buys there lifters from the same company one or two with a flat ground in the lifter body like the johnson lifters /crower or the EDM hole burned thru the soild lifter body it will added oil on the cam or you can buy the comp cam/ goodson tool that cut a oil groove in the lifter bore . still this may help but there is other things that could be the block and not the cam bad lifter bore or just not a good lifters made from junk iron to coarse of a finsh on the lifter foot or wrong profile on the lifter face not making the lifter spin on solid cams i sanded them with 600 wet dry paper for fast break in.but still do not care for flat lifter cams a roller cam is by far better way to go with bad cams bad lifters bad oil
