I'm not seeing an oil hole, so I went to their website, still don't see anything and their description on their "cam saver" lifters are vague, as in they say nothing at all. So why are they called cam savers? I don't see anything different about them.

I used the Comp version that they called EDM at the time and they actually have a hole on the face of the lifter to squirt pressurized oil right onto the cam lobe.

I think Steve C covered this but just incase:

Crower has a hole machined in the bottom (face) of their SFT lifters for the additional oiling option. They mill a small flat on the side of the lifter body connecting the oil band to the bottom of the lifter for their HFT oiling option. If you look closely at 64speeds picture you can see the machined flat.
