I gave up on hydraulic lifters years ago exactly for this reason. The ONLY way, in my opinion, to use them is with a bolt down, non-adjustable valve train. In my opinion that is what hydraulic lifters are are for.

Not only are these things likely to act as BossWrench says but they are going to do this again after you think they are finally adjusted. Particularly after you run hard and you kill the viscosity of the engine oil a little.

I don't know why anyone wants the agravation of anti-pumpup hydraulic lifters in an adjustable valve train. Solids are 1000% easier to do.

I don't even know how to do the lifters with the engine running in a Pantera BW? You must have some kind of a harness that suspends you above the hot drive train?

How do you keep from burning your hands and finger tips?

The only lifter to use with an adjustable valve train is a solid.

Like I said, having fun yet?
