Redd,
Slim... but something else to check... A local engine friend had a similar experience with a particular vendors cam that was not ground properly; and it was not just one cam, it was a few of them right in a row from a bad batch. Reportedly, there was a last taper step missing in this particular manufacturers final grind process that prevented the lifters from spinning as required. Maybe you can have somone look at your cam as well to see if other lobes are correct. Good Luck.
