I have idled my 518 at or under 900 RPM in gear with the Mopar brand roller lifters for over three years of street and strip racing, after breaking two of them(the wheels ) and calling Engle, (I thought the Mopar brand where being made by Engle) NOT. Mark Engle said to not let any non pressurized roller lifter idle less than 1300 RPM in gear and have it idle closer to 1500 rpm to ensure adequate splash oiling to the needles in the roller wheels It kind of makes sense I wil probally follow those guidelines from now on
