Russ, when you said yours had the same body design as this set I'm working with I wondered if they had bushings or bearings.
Obviously the splash oiling is sufficient with the bearings.......


Sure. I have been watching this post from the beginning and did not post initially because mine have the bearings. When no one seemed to describe the lifter body that you put up, I thought I'd mention having the same body.

Must had a bad day as Andy's post spurred me to tell my whiny Isky story. Thought I'd finish with at least some info, albeit not on point.

I personally think it is reasonable to believe you have a lifter design issue there, and was not suggesting otherwise.
