You better pay close attention to oiling the lifters with hydraulic roller in Stage 2 block

An on-center block has its cylinder banks shifted fore/aft. The lifter bores did not get shifted. If the lifter bores were shifted, then they'll be a need for an offset lobe cam which don't exist.
I never seen offset hyd lifters.

I'm just curious why you say this... Would you mind giving some explanation? Furthermore, what does "pay attention" actually mean? Are there some things that need to be done? Or, are you just saying this based on what you've heard from others?
IF Stage blocks are drilled for lifter oiling there will be a very small hole (under .080 dia.) this will not be enuff to oil the lifter and valvetrain. If they're not drilled you need to go rather large (.250+) Hydraulics rely on oil to keep the lash correct if you don't give them enuff oil you will run into problems.
Good info. Thanks for sharing it. But wouldn't it have been more helpful to give the specifics rather than saying "pay attention"?
Definitely better, IMO, than coming across as a jackass. Does that make any sense to you?
