I'm building a new side oiler and having seen several post's before, I still want to ask how the lifters will last on the street ?
Comp Cams has come out with a oiled lifter for mechanical cams. Does this solve the problem that many engine builders say the lifters won't take low idle and stop light to stop light, because the lack of
oil.
Is this true, or do you mechanical roller owners believe in them and drive yours on the street without any problems ?
Quote from the site-
"All models feature EDM
Oil Injection™ technology, which ensures that the roller bearing assembly receives a constant flow of pressurized
oil. This virtually eliminates needle bearing oil starvation, historically a “problem area” for all solid roller lifters when used in low rpm and street applications."
