I'm putting the rest of the valve train in this week and hopefully get the motor started this weekend. I left this for last so the roller lifter soaked in oil while I got all the rest of the work done on the car. I bought one of those camshaft oilers but made my own design to direct oil at the roller between the lifter body and the side of roller. I've read that a rev kit stops the pounding a roller takes, but that transfers the gap to the pushrod and rocker arm and valve. I'm using rebuilt comp rollers and the cam specs are .690 lift dur. 247I 251E @ .050 112LS valve lash is 22I 24E spring pressure 190-500. Thanks for the help
