Default Roller lifter damage

To the few who know about my motor issues.............looked at this today and trying to figure out what might have happened.

Not sure if the old lifters did this or the new lifters did this.

The old lifters were 857 comp / prw 1.65 roller rockers.

New stuff from 2 yrs ago JLI-21120 lifters /1.65 harland sharp 1.65 rockers.

Valley pan is 64-67 type...according to Dave at SD these pans need to be clearance on the pass side, i have 2 dents on p/s and 4 dents on d/s which he says need to work on.

Anyone else have similar issues and the fix for this.

I did have a tomahawk pan i bought from Ace 20 some yrs ago, that thing wouldnt fit no matter what, so i just used the stock one.

Confusing part for me is almost every roller lifter butler has on their site says wont fit using a stock pan, BUT yet doing a search on forum seems most are not having any issues with the stock pan.

If it help any im running the old faithful cam 236/242 which is now at Bullet cams getting fixed from the last shop i used, i know my lift is in the 620 range or so.

So any recommendations on which roller lifters might work with the cam i have..........the last set was $800 and made it two yrs, cant afford another 2 or 3 sets to figure this out.

Sorry for the confusion like so many of my posts are.
