I’ve put around 7,800 miles on a set of bushed Comp 96829B, half dozen passes, my cam seems kinda mild though. I replaced those with regular Comp 96829 with needle bearings. I would’ve kept using the bushed lifters but they were on back order when I needed them.

Stock unbushed 440 block with an oil restriction to the driver’s side lifters. If you don’t have lifter oiling, I don’t think I’d use bushed lifters. I’m the opposite of an expert, it seems people have made it work, but I’d think that’s a needle bearing application rather than a bushing
