[/quote]I use the isky Red Zone EZ Max bushed lifters. They don't use a bronze bushing. I have ruined three of my Street Motors using needle bearing roller lifters. It's never a matter of oiling. The problem is spring pressure. With needle bearings, only two or three of the bearings carry the full load, all the other ones are just along for the ride. It's just a matter of not enough surface area to carry the load...... [/quote]

^ this....the same reason I run the same lifters in my combo. Zero issues so far.
