Can you have too much oil to the pushrod cup? The hydraulic roller lifters I'm looking at for my cam change have pushrod oiling and I was wondering what pushrods to order. I don't have any adjuster cup issues right now but my new cam profile is a little more aggressive than my current solid flat cam. Gus

When I sent oil up just the exhaust PR on a gen 2 with no hole in the adjuster 15 lbs of OP was lost.Did my friends wedge with all 16 PR with no oil hole in the adjuster and also lost 15 lbs of OP.Use a 20 or 30 thou restrictor and the op came right back.
I think it is good as the wedge cups tend to burn in particular cases.
HEMI-ITIS has no cure.
My condition is fully BLOWN!!

I have the Morel high rpm hydro rollers in my 512, my push rods are for oiling & also the stock timed rocker oiling, I did this instead of grooving the cam for full time rocker oiling, 2k miles & some track, good so far.
