Jerry, you may be mistaken there, the question was for solid mechanical roller
not hydraulic.
a solid roller will never,ever........ever......did i mention ever....remotely even come close to 100k. regardless of how its oiled in a FE engine.
that is according to ALL lifter manufacturers. ALL....
so two
oil changes will put you at 6000 to 7000 miles.....yes that would be about lifter changing time. or run the gauntlet and risk the whole motor.
