I can understand why you want to do this trick. I built a 460 Ford motor for a truck swap and one of the retainer rings that restricts the cup in a hydraulic lifter came out and ended up jammed in the oil pump gears. Fortunately the oil pump drive shaft broke and the engine stopped sick

I dodged a bullet there.
