I'm running a solid roller setup and have oil dumping out of the bottom of 2 lifter bores. You guys think I should tube the oil galleys or will I be OK?

The lifters are Doug Herbert's. The motor is still on the engine stand but the bottom end is assembled and the heads are on. Can I still tube it without getting metal chips everywhere? As you can tell I haven't done this before.

I had a set of Herbert lifters on an unbushed/untubed block several years ago. It had about 40 pounds peak oil pressure. I switched to Isky long bodied and problem solved.
