Although I'm not sure at this point, I think the weak link may be the lifters themselves or maybe something else valve train related, perhaps springs. I'm trying to pin point it so as to find a solution.

I finished pulling the cam, pump etc. and haven't come up with anything yet. I still haven't found the piece of the lifter roller missing but it most likely is on the windage tray, I'll drop that tomorrow. In my build thread I posted a few pictures of the pieces out of the motor if anyone wants to see them. There are also, further back, pictures of the other two failures. They look identical.
