The roller's are splash oiled except for the Crower or Isky.Not much splash at idle.

Re: solid roller and street use

1racer,

my machine shop said I need 80psi with my bearing clearances. He said this is because of the oiling the eagle cranks have and spinning to 7k. I don't know what it will be at start up yet. have you heard of this? my mains are supposed to be at .0025

I'm not using the Crower lifters put Paul and Thunder says he uses the same ones he sold me

Never heard of that.
I wouldn't use anything but the Crower or Isky.
