"...Rhoads did not help vacuum any or improve bottom end and even regular lifters ran power brakes fine. They were so noisy , and would bleed down even when trying to set them(start at zero tighten more then it would feel almost as loose as at zero from bleed down) I replaced them."
Cliff, when you read this, please tell us how many problems you've had with Rhoads lifters. I used many sets, and never had a single problem with any of 'em.
