Mike, when I worked at H -M we often put the B7 lifters in the Hydraulic block when changing to a solid lifter cam. Never had a problem that I was aware of, neither Ford or H - M even suggested blocking the oil passage to the lifters when changing. As aside note, the 427 engine came with 3 different solid lifters with the shell type being introduced in that engine as part of the 7000 RPM kit. The other lifters were the "Dumb Bell" type and the last being almost as heavy was cast with little hollowed out pockets and had a spiral built into the side them, probably to help promote rotation on the cam as both of the heavy lifters had wear problems |
