Anybody street driving with no lifter oiling?

I didn't ask if people thought it would work, I asked if people had done it. So, what I have is inconsequential.
Most true. However not mentioning your very particular block was a short fall and it invited a lot of stupid and ignorant comments. Seems like more people like to take pot shots at you like your stupid.

Sorry I can’t answer your question but I wish you the best of luck with the project.

I don’t know much about any “trick oiling mods” but on the surface the oil spray bar sounded like a possible solution. I have seen it done on rocker systems. Perhaps you can get a idea on what to do from that valve train oiling trick.
 
My 340 has the lifter bores blocked off.... I bought it this way and was told the reason is to supply the mains with more oil. Many 7600rpm passes and occasional street driving and have never had an issue. And yes.... it runs a solid flat tappet cam.
 
Yeaaaaaaa, the B/RB's are a little different. It makes sense in a LA.
