The price gap between these and Barton's are pretty minimal but the Barton's look like they could be a headache. Thinking I would need lifter bushings to restrict the oil to the top end if I went with push rod oiling ( on the Barton's). Not to mention I'll need new lifters also if I went the Barton route. 68 Dart GTS "HEMI" 10.30 @ 131 pump gas street car 3780# 69 Roadrunner 511 six pack 10.92 drive to track street car

You drill and tap a 1/8" x3 an fitting in the oil galley and run a line to the bedplate to oil them. They are a much nicer set up than traditional Hemi rocker gear. So easy to put one rocker at a time on.
