Default Re: Lifter re-ginding or turning

It may be that during extreme engine de-acceleration, such as a shift, that the cam may walk forward when using roller lifters, as the pump may be driving the cam during that very short period. I would think otherwise driving the oil pump would be enough to keep it in contact with the thrust face.
