Ron,
I always wanted to ask you what failed on the roller setup you had before and do you recall the brand/type of roller lifters used?
Seems Comp, Crane, Crower have all come out with newly re-enginerred ones over the last year or so; different oiling holes/grooves, etc... obviously something had to fixed...Haven't heard any complaints yet on the new stuff that's out now; only time will tell. Like you, i'm on Solid Flat Tappet for now, but possibly considering hydraulic roller for a different motor in the future after seeing how this new FE roller stuff holds up over a period of years of driving on the street.
