Reply to "Is this screen too fine of mesh? Opinions?"

yes roller type lifters are the norm in todays modern production line engines, but they don't run the kind of near insane spring pressures that I suspect* are at work in Mike's Pride & Joy

the factory rollers run safe moderate pressures that will outrun the 100k warranty & then some

the new breed of engine builder will, for a fee, supply the customer an engine that performs beyond yesterday's wildest dreams

unfortunately there are not many components that are capable of lasting long at that kind of output level

yes the pedestal fulcrum roller tip rocker is more dependable that the full roller rocker, but the rollers on the tips crap out all the time too. back the dead stupid simple Flinstone rocker? for unlimited durability, Yes

quality components cost more but are they capable of living in an environment twice as hostile as even they were designed for?

those stresses will find the weakest link, and there will always be a weakest link

Doug if you're interested here's a page where we tried to figure the gpm capability of the M84A pump, each lobe volume is 7.8cc, I wish the thread would've continued
