[DeTomaso] Comp Cam's roller lifters

Not enough oil or oil pressure?  Any chance oil flow restrictors often used in Clevelands with solid lifters were there?

When Denny Aldridge built our 351C he used Comp Cams roller lifters. Thank
the lord above that he then dyno'd the engine - and found the lifters would
not stay up.  His stroke with Comp Cams got the tear-down and re-dyno pad
for.  Needless to say, I was not impressed.  Can't say I would recommend
them.

  I've not run -that- exact kit, but I did put a similar set of parts
  together on my own over 15 years ago and they worked great!  In my case
  I used the Crane Cams roller conversion kit, with a Crane 351C
  hydraulic roller cam and lifters.  It was easy to install.  I didn't
  use a roller timing gear set though, I used a Pete Jackson (quiet)
  gear-drive set instead.
  The engine ran several thousand miles and successfully competed in the
  Silver State Classic Challenge three times at triple digit speeds.
  I don't think you'll be disappointed.
