Just my $.02, but I would do the SBF Spider and Dogbones over the plates in a minute.

If the plates were made of spring steel, stamped and folded to form "fingers" at each lifter bore that self-adjust as the plate is tightened down, then I'd say the plate could be a workable product.

Plus, the dogbones for thr SBF will engage both flats on the lifter and the plate has only half the contact area. I am probably just saying the same thing you are NC.

Looking at the videos of the roller lifter tracking the cam lob one can see the lifter wants to stay straight and the dogbones look up to this task.
