Here is a bigger question: Is it always the same lifters that tend to tick...is there something in the head design that oil starves one or two lifters more?

I was thinking about this as I was looking at Jeal cam failures...is it always the same lobe?

Additionally the motor in #966 had a lifter tick and when I swapped in #702...same result...lifter tick.
