    More oil take the restrictors out if you have them in check to make sure they're oiling good while the engine is running

      I have had it idling with the valve covers off and there is enough oil to completely fill each rocker

            Either install a stud girdle or oil deflector (Speedway Item # 54567700) to get more oil on your balls.

                Do you have solid or hydraulic lifters?

                    Just thought I would let you guys know we got the issue fixed we welded deflector tabs on the rockers above the oil holes.

                      restrictors are for full roller rockers since they don't need as much oil to cool

                        They're never "needed" if the block is prepped correctly regardless of lifter or rocker configuration.

                          Some guys have fixed this issue by using un-grooved rocker arm balls...

                            We installed them along with welding on the tabs
