I agree on the solid lifters, it proven. and I also think if there is enough bore surface in the tube bores , a double o-ring setup would help a bunch.

Got another brain f-rt?

In early Prat & whitney radial engines I understand they use to coat and cook the jugs and piston with Tung oil to seal the metal pores of the parts to make them slicker and run cooler.

Has anyone ever heard that one before ???????????????
( break out the Formbey's tung oil furniture polish)
